TERMS OF THE OFFERING WITH CERTAIN OF THE SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
 
On May 18, 2010 we executed an Exclusive Finders’ Agreement pursuant to which the Finder acted as the exclusive Finder with respect to sales by us in a private placement transaction of up to $5 million in aggregate principal amount of Equity, Equity-related or debt securities.   We sold 10,080,000 units in exchange for gross proceeds of $2,316,000.  These sales were made in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D thereunder.

Jesup & Lamont Securities Incorporated, a broker-dealer and member of FINRA, acted as finder for us in the Offering.  Under the terms of a Finder’s Agreement with the firm, we paid Jesup & Lamont Securities Incorporated a fee of $162,120 and issued them one-year common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 877,100 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share.  In addition, we paid Jesup & Lamont Securities Incorporated legal expenses totaling $25,000 incurred in the preparation of the various transactional documents.  We are using the net proceeds of this offering for general working capital.
 
Terms of the private placement
 
We offered for sale restricted stock units, each Restricted Stock Unit (“Unit”) being defined as one (1) share of our Common Stock (the “Shares”) and a warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase an additional 0.50 shares of our common stock.  The Warrants have a term of twelve (12) months, with an exercise price of $0.40/share.  The Warrant is callable by us in the event the closing price of our Common Stock on the OTCBB exchange closes above $0.50/share for ten (10) consecutive trading days.

 Under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement we also indemnified the purchasers and each of their officers, directors, shareholders, partners, employees, agents and control persons from any losses or damages as a result of a breach of the agreement by us or any action instituted against a purchaser by any of our shareholders who are not an affiliate of the purchasers with respect to this Offering, other than in the instance of gross negligence or fraud by the purchaser.

Terms for Other Certain Selling Shareholders

We issued 300,000 shares in June, 2010, to Avnet, Inc. in conjunction with a legal settlement.  Terms of the settlement provided for inclusion of the shares in this registration statement.

We issued 1,000,000 shares in June, 2010 to International Business Machines Corporation in conjunction with settlement of litigation.  Terms of the settlement provided for inclusion of the shares in this registration statement.
 
In June, 2010, we issued 2,678,571 shares of common stock to Optimus Capital Partners, LLC, to resolve litigation between the parties.
 
In October, 2009, we sold 1,500,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.10, valued at $150,000 to an accredited investor, Gregory J. Moss, and the issuance was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of that act.   These shares have been included in this registration statement.
  
RISK FACTORS

AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A SIGNIFICANT DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD NOT INVEST IN OUR COMMON STOCK UNLESS YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. YOU SHOULD CONSIDER CAREFULLY THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS AND OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS BEFORE DECIDING TO INVEST IN OUR COMMON STOCK.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMPANY
 
WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND WE MAY NOT ATTAIN OR MAINTAIN PROFITABILITY IN THE FUTURE.

We incurred a net loss for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 and net losses in each full fiscal year since our 2000 inception.  As of September 30, 2010, our accumulated deficit was ($29,622,792). For the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 we had a net loss attributable to common stockholders of approximately $6,964,233 and $2,526,602, respectively, and cash used in operations was approximately $4,128,415 and $2,145,514, respectively.  We expect to make significant expenditures related to the development of our business, including hiring additional personnel relating to sales and marketing, customer service and support and technology development.  As a result of these increased expenditures, we will be required to generate and sustain increased revenue to achieve profitability.  The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 contains a qualification expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our net losses. While we reported an increase in our revenues from continuing operations for fiscal 2010 as compared to fiscal 2009 of approximately 49.7% which is primarily related to our focus on its storage business,.  we cannot assure you that our revenues will continue to increase in future periods, nor can we assure you that they will not decrease. As long as our cash flow from operations remains insufficient to fund our operations, we will continue depleting our cash and other financial resources. Our failure to achieve profitable operations in future periods will adversely affect our ability to continue as a going concern. In this event, you could lose all of your investment in our company.

 
4

 
 
WE WILL NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS. IF WE CANNOT RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL AS NEEDED, OUR ABILITY TO EXECUTE OUR GROWTH STRATEGY AND FUND OUR ONGOING OPERATIONS WILL BE IN JEOPARDY.

Historically, our operations have been financed primarily through the issuance of equity and short-term loans. Capital is typically needed not only to fund our ongoing operations and to pay our existing obligations, but capital is also necessary if we wish to acquire additional assets or companies and for the effective integration, operation and expansion of these businesses. Our future capital requirements, however, depend on a number of factors, including our ability to internally grow our revenues, manage our business and control our expenses. At September 30, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $1,250,033 as compared to a working capital deficit of $3,158,232 at September 30, 2009.  We will need to raise additional capital to fund our ongoing operations, pay our existing obligations and for our future growth. We cannot assure you that additional working capital is available to us in the future upon terms acceptable to us. If we do not raise funds as needed, our ability to provide for current working capital needs, make additional acquisitions, grow our company, and continue our existing business and operations is in jeopardy. In this event, you could lose all of your investment in our company.

OUR TARGET MARKETS ARE HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND DOMINATED BY LARGER COMPANIES AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY.

The market for our products is highly competitive and we expect competition to intensify in the future. This competition could result in increased pricing pressure, reduced gross margins, increased sales and marketing expenses or our failure to increase, or our loss of, market share, any of which could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
Currently, we face competition from a number of established companies, including Compellent Technologies, Inc., EMC Corporation, or EMC, Hewlett-Packard Company, or HP, Hitachi Limited, International Business Machines Corporation, or IBM, and Network Appliance, Inc., or NetApp.  We also face competition from a large number of private companies and recent public company market entrants, such as Isilon Systems, Inc.  Many of our current competitors have, and some of our potential competitors could have, longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we have. Potential customers may prefer to purchase from their existing suppliers rather than a new supplier regardless of product performance or features.

NetApp is our primary competition in the high performance unified network storage system market. They have a significantly greater share of this market than we do. In addition, they are a substantially larger company with more resources than we have.

Our ability to compete effectively in our target markets depends on a number of factors, including:

our products’ scalability, performance, ease of use and cost effectiveness relative to that of our competitors’ products;

aggressive business tactics by our competitors, including selling at a discount or asserting intellectual property rights irrespective of the validity of the claims;

our success in utilizing new and proprietary technologies to offer products and features previously not available in the marketplace;

our success in identifying new markets, applications and technologies;

our ability to attract and retain value-added resellers and OEMs;

our name recognition and reputation;

our ability to recruit development engineers and sales and marketing personnel; and

our ability to protect our intellectual property.
 
 
5

 
 
We expect increased competition from other established and emerging companies, including companies such as networking infrastructure and storage management companies that provide complementary technology and functionality. Some of our competitors, including EMC, HP and NetApp, have made acquisitions of businesses that allow them to offer more directly competitive and comprehensive solutions than they had previously offered. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties. If so, new competitors or alliances that include our competitors may emerge that could acquire significant market share.
 
WE RELY ON VALUE-ADDED RESELLERS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTION PARTNERS TO SELL SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR PRODUCTS. OUR FAILURE TO DEVELOP AND MANAGE, OR DISRUPTIONS TO, OUR DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.
 
Our ability to maintain or increase our revenue will depend in part on our ability to maintain arrangements with our existing channel partners and to establish and expand arrangements with new channel partners. If we fail to do so, our future revenue would be harmed. Additionally, by relying on channel partners, we have less contact with the ultimate users of our products, which may make it difficult for us to establish and increase brand awareness, ensure proper delivery and installation of our products, service ongoing customer requirements and respond to evolving customer needs.
 
Recruiting and retaining qualified channel partners and training them in our technology and product offerings requires significant time and resources. In order to develop and expand our distribution channel, we must continue to scale and improve the processes and procedures that support our channel, including investment in systems and training. Those processes and procedures may become increasingly complex and difficult to manage as we expand our organization.
 
We have no minimum purchase commitments from any of our channel partners, and our contracts with these channel partners do not prohibit them from offering products or services that compete with ours. Our competitors may provide incentives to existing and potential channel partners to favor their products. Our channel partners may choose not to offer our products exclusively or at all. Establishing relationships with channel partners who have a history of selling our competitors' products may also prove to be difficult. Our failure to establish and maintain successful relationships with channel partners would seriously harm our business and operating results.
 
WE RECEIVE A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR REVENUE FROM A LIMITED NUMBER OF CHANNEL PARTNERS, AND THE LOSS OF, OR A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN, ORDERS FROM ONE OR MORE OF OUR MAJOR CHANNEL PARTNERS WOULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.
 
 
6

 
 
Our future success is highly dependent upon establishing and successfully maintaining relationships with a large number of resellers and other distribution partners, which we refer to as channel partners. We market and sell our IceWEB 3000 and 5000 Series products through an all-channel assisted sales model and we derive substantially all of our revenue from these channel partners. We receive a substantial portion of our revenue from a limited number of channel partners.  We anticipate that we will continue to receive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of channel partners for the foreseeable future and, in some cases, a portion of our revenue attributable to individual channel partners may increase in the future. The loss of one or more key channel partners or a reduction in sales through any major channel partner could harm our business.
 
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS AND RESPOND TO TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES, OUR REVENUE COULD BE REDUCED.

Our future growth depends on the successful development and introduction of new systems and software products. Due to the complexity of network storage systems, these products are subject to significant technical risks that may impact our ability to introduce these products successfully. Our new products also may not achieve market acceptance. In addition, our new products must respond to technological changes and evolving industry standards. If we are unable for technological or other reasons to develop and introduce new products in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements, or if these products do not achieve market acceptance, our revenue could be reduced.
 
IMPROVEMENTS IN ALTERNATIVE MEANS TO ACCELERATE STORAGE PERFORMANCE OR REDUCE STORAGE COSTS COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AS THE DEMAND FOR OUR SYSTEMS MAY BE REDUCED.

Our products are designed to improve the performance of many applications, including applications that are based on Microsoft Corporation’s, or Microsoft, protocols. Accordingly, improvements to Microsoft application protocols to accelerate storage performance or reduce storage costs may reduce the need for our products, adversely affecting our business, operating results and financial condition. Improvement in other application protocols or in the Transmission Control Protocol could have a similar effect.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONTINUE TO CREATE VALUABLE INNOVATIONS IN SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GENERATE ADDITIONAL HIGH-MARGIN REVENUE THAT WILL ENABLE US TO MAINTAIN OR INCREASE OUR GROSS MARGINS, WHICH COULD REDUCE OUR REVENUE.

Our industry has a history of declining network storage hardware prices as measured on a “dollar per gigabyte of storage capacity” basis. To maintain or increase our gross margins, we will need to continue to create valuable software that is included with our network storage systems and/or sold separately as a licensed software application. Any new feature or application that we develop or acquire may not be introduced in a timely or cost- effective manner and may not achieve the broad market acceptance necessary to help increase our overall gross margin. If we are unable to successfully develop or acquire and then market and sell additional software and hardware functionality, our revenue could be reduced.

OUR ABILITY TO SELL OUR PRODUCTS IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE QUALITY OF OUR SUPPORT SERVICES, AND ANY FAILURE TO OFFER HIGH-QUALITY SUPPORT SERVICES COULD REDUCE OUR PRODUCT SALES AND REVENUE.

After our products are deployed within our customers’ networks, our customers depend on our support services organization to resolve issues relating to our products and how they perform within our customer’s environment. High-quality support services are therefore critical for the successful marketing and sale of our products. If we do not succeed in helping our customers to quickly resolve post-deployment issues and provide ongoing support if our partners do not effectively assist our customers in deploying our products, it would adversely affect our ability to sell our products to existing customers and could harm our prospects with potential customers. In addition, as we expand our operations internationally, our support services organization will face additional challenges, which we expect to include those issues that are associated with delivering support, training and documentation in languages other than English. As a result, our failure to maintain high-quality support services could reduce our product sales and revenue.

OUR PRODUCTS ARE HIGHLY TECHNICAL AND MAY CONTAIN UNDETECTED SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE DEFECTS, WHICH COULD CAUSE DATA UNAVAILABILITY, LOSS OR CORRUPTION THAT MIGHT, IN TURN, RESULT IN LIABILITY TO OUR CUSTOMERS, HARM TO OUR REPUTATION AND A REDUCTION OF PRODUCT SALES AND REVENUE.

Our network storage products are highly technical and complex and are often used to store information critical to our customers’ business operations. Our products have contained and may contain undetected errors, defects or security vulnerabilities that could result in data unavailability, loss or corruption or other harm to our customers. Some errors in our products may only be discovered after they have been installed and used by customers. Any errors, defects or security vulnerabilities discovered in our products after commercial release, as well as any computer virus or human error on the part of our customer support or other personnel resulting in a customer’s data unavailability, loss or corruption could result in a loss of customers or increased support and warranty costs, any of which may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, we could face claims for product liability, tort or breach of warranty, including claims relating to changes to our products made by our partners. Our contracts with customers contain provisions relating to warranty disclaimers and liability limitations, which may be difficult to enforce. Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, could be costly and might divert management’s attention and adversely affect the market’s perception of us and our products. In addition, if our business liability insurance coverage proves inadequate for a claim, or future coverage is unavailable on acceptable terms or at all, our product sales and revenue could be reduced.
 
OUR FACTORING AGREEMENT WITH SAND HILL FINANCE, LLC CONTAINS CERTAIN TERMS WHICH MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL IN FUTURE PERIODS.

In December 2005 and as amended during fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2008, we entered into a Finance Agreement with Sand Hill Finance, LLC for a $2.75 million accounts receivable factoring line. Under the terms of this agreement we agreed not to take certain actions including undertaking a transaction which would result in a change of control of our company or the transfer of more than 20% of our securities and incurring any indebtedness other than trade credit in the ordinary course of business. These restrictions may limit our ability to raise working capital as needed.

OUR PRIMARY ASSETS SERVE AS COLLATERAL UNDER OUR ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FACTORING LINE. IF WE WERE TO DEFAULT ON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LENDER COULD FORECLOSE ON OUR ASSETS.

The revolving line with Sand Hill Finance, LLC is collateralized by a blanket security interest in our assets. If we should default under the terms of this agreement, the lender could seek to foreclose on our primary assets. If the lender was successful, we would be unable to conduct our business as it is presently conducted and our ability to generate revenues and fund our ongoing operations would be materially adversely affected.

WE DO NOT HAVE A DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN AND WE DO NOT CARRY BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE.

Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure, break-ins and similar events. Our headquarters are physically located in Fairfax County, Virginia, a Washington, DC suburb, in close proximity to the US Capitol, White House, Pentagon, CIA, and numerous other agencies within the intelligence community. All these government installations are considered potential targets of any future terrorist attacks. We do not currently have a disaster recovery plan, nor do we carry business interruption insurance to compensate our company for losses that may occur. We are also vulnerable to computer viruses and/or physical disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of data or the inability to accept orders. The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

OUR MANAGEMENT MAY BE UNABLE TO EFFECTIVELY INTEGRATE OUR ACQUISITIONS AND TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO FULLY REALIZE ANY ANTICIPATED BENEFITS OF THESE ACQUISITIONS.

Our business strategy includes growth through acquisition and internal development. We are subject to various risks associated with our growth strategy, including the risk that we will be unable to identify and recruit suitable acquisition candidates in the future or to integrate and manage the acquired companies. Acquired companies’ histories, geographical locations, business models and business cultures can be different from ours in many respects. Our directors and senior management face a significant challenge in their efforts to integrate our businesses and the business of the acquired companies or assets, and to effectively manage our continued growth. There can be no assurance that our efforts to integrate the operations of any acquired assets or companies acquired in the future will be successful, that we can manage our growth or that the anticipated benefits of these proposed acquisitions will be fully realized. The dedication of management resources to these efforts may detract attention from our day-to-day business. There can be no assurance that there will not be substantial costs associated with these activities or of the success of our integration efforts, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
 
WE HAVE NOT VOLUNTARILY IMPLEMENTED VARIOUS CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MEASURES, IN THE ABSENCE OF WHICH, STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE MORE LIMITED PROTECTIONS AGAINST INTERESTED DIRECTOR TRANSACTIONS, CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND SIMILAR MATTERS.

Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The Nasdaq Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, audit committee oversight, and the adoption of a code of ethics. Because our stock is not listed on an exchange we are not required to adopt these corporate governance standards. While our board of directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and our Board has established Audit and Compensation Committees, we have not adopted all of the corporate governance measures which we might otherwise have been required to adopt if our securities were listed on a national securities exchange. It is possible that if we were to adopt all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

THE EXERCISE OF WARRANTS AND OPTIONS AND THE CONVERSION OF SHARES OF OUR SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK WILL BE DILUTIVE TO OUR EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS.

At September 30, 2010 we had outstanding:

 
134,443,725 shares of our common stock,
 
626,667 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock owned by our Chief Executive Officer which is convertible into 626,667 shares of our common stock,
 
common stock purchase warrants to purchase a total of 8,287,100 shares of our common stock with exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $2.00 per share, and
 
Stock options granted under our 2000 Management and Director Equity Incentive and Compensation Plan which are exercisable into 11,604,404 shares of our common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $0.296 per share.

CERTAIN OF OUR OUTSTANDING WARRANTS CONTAIN CASHLESS EXERCISE PROVISIONS WHICH MEANS WE WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY CASH PROCEEDS UPON THEIR EXERCISE.

In December 2005, we issued a seven year common stock purchase warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share in connection with our accounts receivable financing agreement with Sand Hill Finance, LLC.

These warrants were exercisable on a cashless basis which means that the holders, rather than paying the exercise price in cash, may surrender a number of warrants equal to the exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The utilization of this cashless exercise feature deprived us of additional capital which might otherwise be obtained if the warrants did not contain a cashless feature.

PROVISIONS OF OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS MAY DELAY OR PREVENT A TAKE-OVER WHICH MAY NOT BE IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our stockholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt. In addition, certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporations Law also may be deemed to have certain anti-takeover effects which include that control of shares acquired in excess of certain specified thresholds will not possess any voting rights unless these voting rights are approved by a majority of a corporation’s disinterested stockholders.

In addition, our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors. We presently have outstanding 626,667 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.  Our Board of Directors may, without stockholder approval, issue additional series of preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock.

OUR COMMON STOCK COULD BE REMOVED FROM QUOTATION ON THE OTCBB IF WE FAIL TO TIMELY FILE OUR ANNUAL OR QUARTERLY REPORTS. IF OUR COMMON STOCK WAS NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR QUOTATION ON THE OTCBB, THE LIQUIDITY OF OUR STOCK MAY BE FURTHER ADVERSELY IMPACTED.

Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission we are required to file our quarterly reports within 45 days from the end of the fiscal quarter and our annual report within 90 days from the end of our fiscal year. Under rules adopted by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) in 2005 which is informally known as the “Three Strikes Rule”, a FINRA member is prohibited from quoting securities of an OTCBB issuer such as our company if the issuer either fails to timely file these reports or is otherwise delinquent in the filing requirements three times in the prior two year period or if the issuer’s common stock has been removed from quotation on the OTCBB twice in that two year period. If we were to fail to file three reports on a timely basis our stock would be removed from quotation on the OTCBB and would in all likelihood then be quoted on the Pink Sheets Electronic Quotation Service. Pink Sheets offers a quotation service to companies that are unable to list their securities on the OTCBB or an exchange. The requirements for listing on the Pink Sheets are considerably lower and less regulated than those of the OTCBB an exchange. If our common stock were to be quoted on the Pink Sheets, it is possible that even fewer brokers or dealers would be interested in making a market in our common stock which would further adversely impact its liquidity.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND WORLD EVENTS COULD AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS.
 
We, and our customers, may be adversely affected by an economic downturn such as changes in consumer and investor confidence, instability in the credit and financial markets, volatile corporate profits, and reduced business and consumer spending. The economy as a whole also may be affected by future world events such as acts of terrorism, developments in the war on terrorism, conflicts in international situations, and by natural disasters. These factors may affect our results of operations by reducing our sales, margins and/or net income as a result of a slowdown in customer orders or order cancellations. In addition, political and social turmoil related to international conflicts and terrorist acts may put further pressure on economic conditions abroad. Unstable political, social and economic conditions may make it difficult for our customers, suppliers and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. If such conditions persist, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could be negatively affected.

DIVIDEND POLICY

         We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Under Delaware law, we may declare and pay dividends on our capital stock either out of our surplus, as defined in the relevant Delaware statutes, or if there is no such surplus, out of our net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. If, however, the capital of our company, computed in accordance with the relevant Delaware statutes, has been diminished by depreciation in the value of our property, or by losses, or otherwise, to an amount less than the aggregate amount of the capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets, we are prohibited from declaring and paying out of such net profits and dividends upon any shares of our capital stock until the deficiency in the amount of capital represented by the issued and outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets shall have been repaired.
 
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
This prospectus includes 26,011,488 shares of common stock offered by the selling stockholders.

Each selling stockholder and any of its pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of its shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which our shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
 
¨
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 
¨
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 
¨
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 
¨
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 
11

 
 
 
¨
privately negotiated transactions;

 
¨
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

 
¨
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 
¨
Through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 
¨
a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 
¨
Any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

A selling stockholder or its pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may also sell the shares directly to market makers acting as principals and/or broker-dealers acting as agents for themselves or their customers. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal or both, which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions. Market makers and block purchasers purchasing the shares will do so for their own account and at their own risk. It is possible that a selling stockholder will attempt to sell shares of common stock in block transactions to market makers or other purchasers at a price per share which may be below the then market price. A selling stockholder cannot assure that all or any of the shares offered in this prospectus will be issued to, or sold by, the selling stockholder. The selling stockholders and any brokers, dealers or agents, upon effecting the sale of any of the shares offered in this prospectus, may be deemed to be "underwriters" as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules and regulations under such acts. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, including fees and disbursements of counsel to the selling stockholder, but excluding brokerage commissions or underwriter discounts.

The selling stockholders, alternatively, may sell all or any part of the shares offered in this prospectus through an underwriter. No selling stockholder has entered into any agreement with a prospective underwriter and there is no assurance that any such agreement will be entered into.

A selling stockholder may pledge its shares to their brokers under the margin provisions of customer agreements. If a selling stockholder defaults on a margin loan, the broker may, from time to time, offer and sell the pledged shares. The selling stockholder and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by, the selling stockholder or any other such person. In the event that the selling stockholder is deemed affiliated with purchasers or distribution participants within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In regards to short sells, the selling stockholder is contractually restricted from engaging in short sells. In addition, if such short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the selling stockholder will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

We have agreed to indemnify certain of the selling stockholders, or their transferees or assignees, against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments the selling stockholder or their respective pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, may be required to make in respect of such liabilities.

 
12

 

 
If the selling stockholder notifies us that it has a material arrangement with a broker-dealer for the resale of the common stock, then we would be required to amend the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and file a prospectus supplement to describe the agreements between the selling stockholder and the broker-dealer.

We agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the selling stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect.

 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

BUSINESS OF ICEWEB

Headquartered just outside of Washington, D.C., we manufacture and market Unified data storage, purpose built appliances, network and cloud attached storage solutions and deliver on-line cloud computing application services.  Our customer base includes U.S. government agencies, enterprise companies, and small to medium sized businesses (SMB).

A unified storage system simultaneously enables storage of file data and handles the block-based I/O (input/output) of enterprise applications.  We believe one advantage of unified storage is reduced hardware requirements. Instead of separate storage platforms, like NAS for file-based storage and a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) disk array for block-based storage, unified storage combines both modes in a single device. Alternatively, a single device could be deployed for either file or block storage as required.
 
In addition to lower capital expenditures for the enterprise, unified storage systems can also be simpler to manage than separate products.  The IceWEB Storage System offers one platform for file and block data of all kinds.
The IceWEB Storage System is an all-inclusive storage management system which includes de-duplication; unlimited snapshots; thin provisioning; local or remote, real-time or scheduled replication; capacity and utilization reporting, and integration with virtual server environments.  Unified storage systems enjoy the same level of reliability as dedicated file or block storage systems.

We generate revenues from the manufacture and sale of high-performance unified data storage products, data storage appliances and servers, and the sale of software services.  We believe that the key factors to our continued growth and profitability include the following:

 
Increasing the number of channel partners selling our products
 
Continued investment in product development and research efforts
 
Raising approximately $5 million of additional working capital to expand our marketing, research and development, and restructure our debt.
 
Hiring additional qualified, technical employees, and
 
The number of new customers added.

CHANGE IN PRESENTATION

We have changed the presentation of our results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 to reflect as discontinued operations the results of operations of our IceWEB Virginia, Inc. subsidiary in response to comments from the staff of the SEC.  This change did not result in a restatement of our 2009 financial statements.  We sold 100% of the capital stock of our wholly-owned subsidiary, IceWEB Virginia, Inc. to an unrelated party in March, 2009.  Discontinued operations reflect the results from IceWEB Virginia, Inc. through the date of sale.

GOING CONCERN

We have a history of losses and have incurred net losses of approximately $29.6 million since inception through September 30, 2010. Our current operations are not an adequate source of cash to fund future operations. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due and to generate profitable operations in the future. We plan to continue to provide for our capital requirements through the sale of equity securities and debt, however, we have no firm commitments from any third party to provide this financing and we cannot assure you we will be successful in raising working capital as needed. There are no assurances that we will have sufficient funds to execute our business plan, pay our operating expenses and obligations as they become due or generate positive operating results.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to previously reported amounts to conform to 2008 amounts. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or shareholders’ deficit.

Going Concern
Our auditors stated in their report on our consolidated financial statements for the Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 that we have had losses since inception that raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition and as discussed further in Note 6, we are not in compliance with debt covenants under our Financing Agreements with Sand Hill Finance LLC. For the year ended September 30, 2010 we incurred a net loss of $6,964,233.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue in existence.

 
13

 
 
Management has established plans intended to increase the sales of our products and services. Management intends to seek new capital from new equity securities offerings to provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund growth, and implement its business plan. However, no assurances can be given that we will be able to raise any additional funds.

Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and deposits approximated fair value as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments and their market interest rates.

Marketable Securities
IceWEB accounts for the purchase of marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 320, “Investment – Debt and Equity Securities” with any unrealized gains and losses included as a net amount as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.  However, those securities may not have the trading volume to support the stock price if the Company were to sell all their shares in the open market at once, so the Company may have a loss on the sale of marketable securities even though they record marketable equity securities at the current market value.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheets and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2009 and 2008 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the allowance for inventory obsolescence and the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, and litigation reserves.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of normal trade receivables. We recorded a bad debt allowance of $309,000 at September 30, 2010 and $9,000 as of September 30, 2009. Management performs ongoing evaluations of its accounts receivable. Management believes that all remaining receivables are fully collectable. Bad debt expense amounted to $336,568 and $29,324 for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market, on an average cost basis.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Intangible Assets
Intangible assets, net consists of the cost of acquired customer relationships. We capitalize and amortize the cost of acquired intangible assets over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful life of our acquired customer relationships is five years.

Long-lived Assets In accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” (formerly SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”), we review the carrying value of intangibles and other long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.

Revenue Recognition
We follow the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (formerly Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”) for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenues streams:

 
14

 
 
Revenues from sales of products are generally recognized when products are shipped unless we has obligations remaining under sales or licensing agreements, in which case revenue is either deferred until all obligations are satisfied or recognized ratably over the term of the contract.

Revenue from services is recorded as it is earned. Commissions earned on third party sales are recorded in the month in which contracts are awarded. Customers are generally billed every two weeks based on the units of production for the project. Each project has an estimated total which is based on the estimated units of production and agreed upon billing rates. Amounts billed in advance of services being provided are recorded as deferred revenues and recognized in the consolidated statement of operations as services are provided.

Earnings per Share
We compute earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (formerly SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”) Under the provisions of ASC Topic 260, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of the common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) and upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock (using the if-converted method). Potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the calculation if their effect is antidilutive.  At September 30, 2009, there were options and warrants to purchase 11,169,483 shares of common stock, 626,667 shares issuable upon conversion of Series B preferred stock, and no shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

Stock-Based Compensation
As more fully described in Note 12, we have a stock option plan that provides for non-qualified and incentive stock options to be issued to directors, officers, employees and consultants (the 2000 Management and Director Equity Incentive and Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

Prior to October 1, 2005, we accounted for stock options issued under the Plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, as permitted by ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payments. No stock-based compensation cost related to employee stock options was recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended September 30, 2005 as all options granted under the Plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

Effective October 1, 2005, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payments using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the year ended September 30, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of September 30, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to October 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R). Financial results for the year ended September 30, 2005 have not been restated.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and amended the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such that the ASC became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. The ASC did not change current U.S. GAAP, but was intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC is considered non-authoritative. New accounting standards issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 are communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). We adopted the ASC on July 1, 2009. This standard did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. However, throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements references that were previously made to various former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide with the appropriate section of the ASC.

 
15

 
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly declined and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. The standard also amended certain disclosure provisions for fair value measurements and disclosures in ASC 820 to require, among other things, disclosures in interim periods of the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value as well as disclosure of the hierarchy of the source of underlying fair value information on a disaggregated basis by specific major category of investment. The standard was effective prospectively beginning April 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which modifies the requirements for recognizing other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities and changes the existing impairment model for such securities. The standard also requires additional disclosures for both annual and interim periods with respect to both debt and equity securities. Under the standard, impairment of debt securities will be considered other-than-temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (3) does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). The standard further indicates that, depending on which of the above factor(s) causes the impairment to be considered other-than-temporary, (1) the entire shortfall of the security’s fair value versus its amortized cost basis or (2) only the credit loss portion would be recognized in earnings while the remaining shortfall (if any) would be recorded in other comprehensive income. The standard requires entities to initially apply its provisions to previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities existing as of the date of initial adoption by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The cumulative-effect adjustment potentially reclassifies the noncredit portion of a previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt security held as of the date of initial adoption from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard regarding interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments. The standard essentially expands the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments that were previously required only annually to also be required for interim period reporting. In addition, the standard requires certain additional disclosures regarding the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding subsequent events. This standard incorporates into authoritative accounting literature certain guidance that already existed within generally accepted auditing standards, with the requirements concerning recognition and disclosure of subsequent events remaining essentially unchanged. This guidance addresses events which occur after the balance sheet date but before the issuance of financial statements. Under the new standard, as under previous practice, an entity must record the effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date and must disclose but not record the effects of subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date. This standard added an additional required disclosure relative to the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and whether that is the date on which the financial statements were issued. For usthis standard was effective beginning April 1, 2009.

 In June 2009, the FASB issued a new standard regarding the accounting for transfers of financial assets amending the existing guidance on transfers of financial assets to, among other things, eliminate the qualifying special-purpose entity concept, include a new unit of account definition that must be met for transfers of portions of financial assets to be eligible for sale accounting, clarify and change the derecognition criteria for a transfer to be accounted for as a sale, and require significant additional disclosure. The standard is effective for new transfers of financial assets beginning January 1, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard that revised the consolidation guidance for variable-interest entities. The modifications include the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. The standard is effective January 1, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, a entity may use, the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-6, Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements, that amends existing disclosure requirements under ASC 820 by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. This ASU is effective for the first quarter of 2010, except for the requirement to provide level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which is effective beginning the first quarter of 2011. Since this standard impacts disclosure requirements only, its adoption will not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-12, Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), that amends ASC 820 to provide guidance on measuring the fair value of certain alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity funds and venture capital funds. The ASU indicates that, under certain circumstance, the fair value of such investments may be determined using net asset value (NAV) as a practical expedient, unless it is probable the investment will be sold at something other than NAV. In those situations, the practical expedient cannot be used and disclosure of the remaining actions necessary to complete the sale is required. The ASU also requires additional disclosures of the attributes of all investments within the scope of the new guidance, regardless of whether an entity used the practical expedient to measure the fair value of any of its investments. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions.  The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that reduces the types of transactions that fall within the current scope of software revenue recognition guidance. Existing software revenue recognition guidance requires that its provisions be applied to an entire arrangement when the sale of any products or services containing or utilizing software when the software is considered more than incidental to the product or service. As a result of the amendments included in ASU No. 2009-14, many tangible products and services that rely on software will be accounted for under the multiple-element arrangements revenue recognition guidance rather than under the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the ASU, the following components would be excluded from the scope of software revenue recognition guidance:  the tangible element of the product, software products bundled with tangible products where the software components and non-software components function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality, and undelivered components that relate to software that is essential to the tangible product’s functionality. The ASU also provides guidance on how to allocate transaction consideration when an arrangement contains both deliverables within the scope of software revenue guidance (software deliverables) and deliverables not within the scope of that guidance (non-software deliverables). The ASU is effective beginning January 1, 2011. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Subsequent Events:  In February 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) – Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements.”  ASU 2010-09 amends the subsequent events disclosure guidance.  The amendments include a definition of an SEC filer, requires an SEC filer or conduit bond obligor to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued, and removes the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated.  ASU 2010-09 was effective upon issuance except for the use of the issued date for conduit debt obligors.  The impact of ASU 2010-09 on our disclosures is reflected in Note 15 - Subsequent Events.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures:  In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.”  ASU 2010-06 amends the fair value disclosure guidance.  The amendments include new disclosures and changes to clarify existing disclosure requirements.  ASU 2010-06 was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements of Level 3 fair value measurements.  Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.  The impact of ASU 2010-06 on our disclosures is reflected in Note 10 - Fair Value Measurements.

Consolidations:  In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-17 (formerly Statement No. 167), “Consolidations (Topic 810) – Improvements to Financial Reporting for Enterprises involved with Variable Interest Entities”. ASU 2009-17 amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments to the consolidation guidance affect all entities, as well as qualifying special-purpose entities (QSPEs) that are currently excluded from previous consolidation guidance. ASU 2009-17 was effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. ASU 2009-17 did not have an impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or disclosures.

Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets:  In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-16 (formerly Statement No. 166), “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) – Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets”. ASU 2009-16 amends the derecognition accounting and disclosure guidance. ASU 2009-16 eliminates the exemption from consolidation for QSPEs and also requires a transferor to evaluate all existing QSPEs to determine whether they must be consolidated. ASU 2009-16 was effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. ASU 2009-16 did not have an impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or disclosures.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Sales

Our sales increased approximately 49.7% in fiscal year 2010 from fiscal year 2009.  Of our total net sales for fiscal 2010, approximately $3,152,346 is attributable to our sale of storage products, and approximately $200,940 is attributable to sales from our online products and services. Of our total net sales for fiscal 2009, approximately $1,957,856 is attributable to our sale of storage products, and approximately $282,507 is attributable to sales from our online products and services.

The increase in fiscal 2010 net sales from fiscal 2009 is primarily due to the increase in our IceWEB storage products, as we have refocused our efforts on our leading edge storage products.  We anticipate revenues for fiscal 2011 will increase due to sales of our Unified Network Storage Solutions and other data storage products.
.
Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Our cost of sales consists primarily of products purchased to manufacture our storage products.  For fiscal 2010, cost of sales was approximately 52.0% of sales, as compared to approximately 59.0% of sales, for fiscal 2009. The decrease in costs of sales as a percentage of revenue and the corresponding increase in our gross profit margin for fiscal 2010 as compared to fiscal 2009 was the result of an increase in higher margin storage sales in fiscal 2010. We anticipate that our cost of sales as a percentage of revenue will remain in the 50% to 55% range in fiscal 2011, as 95% of our fiscal 2010 revenues are expected to come primarily from our higher margin storage business.

Total Operating Expenses

Our total operating expenses increased approximately 47% for fiscal 2010 as compared to fiscal 2009.  The increase is primarily due to increased headcount in sales and marketing, increased investment in research and development, and our investment in launching our channel sales distribution model.  This increase includes:

 
18

 
 
•            Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense includes salaries, commission, occupancy, telephone, travel, and entertainment expenses for direct sales personnel.  For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, sales and marketing costs were $1,690,684 as compared to $1,004,970 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, an increase of $685,714 or approximately 68.2%. The increase was due primarily to hiring additional sales and marketing personnel to support our channel distribution sales and marketing approach during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010

•            Depreciation and amortization expense. For fiscal 2010, depreciation and amortization expense decreased approximately 5% from fiscal 2009.

 Amortization expense is related to the customer relationships and manufacturing GSA schedule which are intangible assets that we generated through our acquisition of Inline Corporation.  The GSA schedule is being amortized on a straight-line basis over three years. Amortization expense was $243,090 for both fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009.

•           Research and development expense.  For fiscal 2010, research and development expenses increased approximately 59% from fiscal 2009.  This increase is related to increased research and development efforts related to our storage products.  We anticipate the spending on research and development in fiscal 2011 will be approximately $175,000 per quarter related to developing and enhancing our storage solutions and pursuing intellectual property patents when we believe it is warranted.

•            General and administrative expense. For fiscal 2010, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 51% from fiscal 2009. This increase is primarily attributable to higher stock-based compensation, higher investor relations expense, higher bad debt expense, and higher legal and professional fees.  For fiscal 2010 and 2009, general and administrative expenses consisted of the following:

   
2010
   
2009
 
Salaries/benefits
    3,483,798       2,897,647  
Occupancy
    24,139       50,258

    659,547       82,929

    518,303       125,922

Insurance
    46,304       59,072  
      5,325,898       3,538,086  

The principal changes in fiscal 2010 as compared to fiscal 2009 include:
For fiscal 2010, salaries and related taxes and benefits increased approximately 20.2% from fiscal 2009. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in headcount, the increase in stock based compensation, and expense recorded in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payments”), for fiscal 2010 of $329,604, an increase of 15%.

For fiscal 2010, occupancy expense decreased approximately 52% from fiscal 2009.  The decrease was due to consolidation and relocation of office locations.

For fiscal 2010, professional fees increased $576,619, or approximately 695% from fiscal 2009. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in legal fees incurred and the settlement of lawsuits against us in fiscal 2010.

For fiscal 2010, other expense increased approximately 312% from fiscal 2009. The increase is primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense of $300,000, and hosting fees of $48,735.

For fiscal 2010, consulting expense increased by approximately 126% from fiscal 2009. The increase was primarily due to non-recurring consulting fees related to our capital raising activities, and human resources recruiting fees.

For fiscal 2010, investor relations expense increased approximately 107% from fiscal 2009. The increase was attributable to an increase in general investor relations activity versus fiscal 2009.  We expect that in fiscal 2011 our investor relations activity and related expense will be substantially flat.

 
19

 
 
For fiscal 2010, internet and telephone expense decreased approximately 75%. The decrease was attributable to cost cutting measures adopted by us.

For fiscal 2010, travel and entertainment expense increased approximately 20%. The increase was attributable to an increase in general business, and travel-related investor relations activity.

For fiscal 2010, insurance expense decreased approximately 22% from fiscal 2009. The decrease was attributable to lower premiums paid for general business and directors and officer’s insurance.

LOSS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS

Our loss from operations increased approximately 42% in fiscal year 2010 as compared to fiscal year 2009.  This increase is primarily the result of increased headcount, increased research and development efforts, and our investment in our channel marketing sales programs.

During the fiscal second quarter of 2009 we sold our wholly owned subsidiary, Iceweb Virginia, Inc. to an unrelated third party.

For 2009 we earned revenues in discontinued operations of $1,694,322.  We had no comparable discontinued operations in fiscal 2010.

Total operating expenses of discontinued operations in fiscal 2009 amounted to $209,607, and consisted of primarily sales and marketing expenses associated with IceWEB Virginia, Inc. and the amortization of the GSA schedule through the date of sale of the subsidiary.

Gain (loss) from sale of assets. During the fiscal year 2009 we recorded a gain of $2,666,236 on the sale of our IceWEB Virginia, Inc. subsidiary. We did not have a comparable transaction in fiscal 2010.

TOTAL OTHER INCOME (EXPENSES)

Interest Expense. For fiscal 2010, interest expense decreased approximately 17%. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to lower average outstanding note balances during fiscal 2010, and lower deferred loan fee amortization in fiscal 2010 of $27,015 as compared to deferred loan fee amortization of $127,015 in fiscal 2009.

NET LOSS

Our net loss was $6,964,233 for fiscal 2010 compared to $2,526,602 for fiscal 2009, an increase of $4,437,631 or approximately 176%.

At September 30, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $1,250,033 compared to a working capital deficit of $3,158,232 at September 30, 2009, a decrease of $1,908,199.  The decrease in the deficit is primarily attributable to the cash raised in our private placement in June, 2010, in the amount of approximately $2.3 million.  In addition, the changes are primarily attributable to the decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $259,757, and the decrease in our current notes payable of $198,615, offset by the increase in accounts receivable of $1,104,934, and an increase in marketable securities of $524,800.  Also contributing was the decrease in inventory of $89,164 and the increase in deferred revenue of $49,321.

Net cash used in operating activities was $4,128,415 for fiscal 2010 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $2,145,514 for fiscal 2009, an increase of $1,982,901.  For fiscal 2010, our cash used in operations of $4,128,415 consisted of a net loss of $6,964,233, offset by non-cash items totaling $2,835,818 including items such as depreciation and amortization of $662,003, stock based compensation of $867,365, the amortization of deferred compensation of $1,627,919, and other non-cash items of $938,282.  Additionally, during fiscal 2010 we had a decrease in operating liabilities and an increase in operating assets which incremented our net loss. This change in operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of an increase in accounts receivable of $1,104,934 attributable to an increase in annual sales, and an increase in prepaid expenses of $33,545,offset by a decrease in net inventory of $89,164, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $259,757 and an increase in deferred revenue of $49,321.

For fiscal 2009, our cash used in operations of $2,145,514 consisted of a net loss of $2,526,602, offset by non-cash items totaling $381,088 including items such as depreciation and amortization of $742,636, stock based compensation of $1,167,721, the amortization of deferred compensation of $1,016,134, and other non-cash items of $162,748.  Additionally, during fiscal 2010 we had a decrease in operating liabilities and a decrease in operating assets which offset our net loss. This change in operating assets and liabilities primarily consisted of a decrease in accounts receivable of $2,669,191 attributable to a decrease in annual sales, and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $29,975, a decrease in deposits of $33,035, and a decrease in net inventory of $248,951, offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $3,020,165 and an increase in deferred revenue of $2,902.

Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2010 was $133,624 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $99,762 for fiscal 2009.  During fiscal 2010 we used cash of $85,624 for property and equipment purchases, and $48,000 to invest in marketable securities. During fiscal 2009, net cash used in investing activities was $99,762 which was cash used for property and equipment purchases.

Net cash provided by financing activities for fiscal 2010 was $4,738,885 as compared to $2,303,806 for fiscal 2009, an increase of $2,435,079. The primary reason for the increase was due to the proceeds from the sale of common stock of $2,380,630, and the exercise of common stock options of $2,591,626. In addition we made payments on notes payable of $1,835,395, and borrowed $1,602,024 under our financing line.

At September 30, 2010 we had an accumulated deficit of $29,622,792 and the report from our independent registered public accounting firm on our audited financial statements at September 30, 2010 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our net losses in operations. In spite of our sales, there is no assurance that we will be able to maintain or increase our sales in fiscal 2010 or that we will report net income in any future periods.

We do not have any working capital commitments nor do we not presently have any external sources of working capital. Historically, our sales have not been sufficient to fund our operations and we have relied on capital provided through the sale of equity securities, and various financing arrangements and loans from related parties. At September 30, 2010 we had cash on hand of $540,156.  In addition to the cash necessary to fund our operating losses, research and development, marketing and general growth, we will need cash to satisfy certain obligations.  In fiscal 2006, we entered into a receivable factoring agreement with Sand Hill Finance, LLC under which we can sell certain accounts receivable to the lender on a full recourse basis at 80% of the face amount of the receivable up to an aggregate of $1.8 million. This financing agreement was amended in fiscal 2009 to increase the line amount to $2,750,000, and to add an 18 month term loan of $1,000,000 with an interest rate of 24% per annum.  As of September 30, 2010, we had $1,100,860 available under the line of credit facility.

Our working capital needs in future periods depend primarily on the rate at which we can increase our sales while controlling our expenses and decreasing the use of cash to fund operations. Additional capital may be needed to fund acquisitions of additional companies or assets, although we are not a party to any pending agreements at this time and, accordingly, cannot estimate the amount of capital which may be necessary, if any, for acquisitions.

As long as our cash flow from operations remains insufficient to completely fund operations, we will continue depleting our financial resources and seeking additional capital through equity and/or debt financing.  Under the terms of the financing agreement with Sand Hill Finance, LLC we agreed not to incur any additional indebtedness other than trade credit in the ordinary course of business. These covenants may also limit our ability to raise capital in future periods. There can be no assurance that acceptable financing can be obtained on suitable terms, if at all.  Our ability to continue our existing operations and to fund our working capital needs will suffer if we are unable to raise the additional funds on acceptable terms which will have the effect of adversely affecting our ongoing operations and limiting our ability to increase our sales and maintain profitable operations in the future. If we are unable to secure the necessary additional working capital as needed, we may be forced to curtail some or all of our operations.

OUR BUSINESS
 
OVERVIEW
 
IWEB was originally founded to serve the commercial and federal markets with network security products and proprietary on-line software solutions.  In 2008, IWEB narrowed its focus and expanded its capabilities by acquiring INLINE Corporation, a data storage company specializing in custom designed, short-production run storage solutions for the Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) market.

In March, 2009, we sold our wholly owned subsidiary, IceWEB Virginia, Inc. to an unrelated 3rd party, and in the process exited its low-margin IT re-seller business products business to further focus on the higher margin data storage manufacturing business.

At the close of Fiscal year 2010, we have three key product offerings:

IceWEB 3000/5000 Unified Network Storage Solutions
Purpose Built Network/Data Appliances
Cloud Computing Products/Services

IceWEB 3000/5000 Unified Network Storage Solutions

IceWEB is a leading provider of high performance Unified Network Storage solutions.  Our product offerings have broad appeal in the enterprise and federal marketplaces, and are used as core building blocks (enabling technologies) of business critical storage infrastructure for a diverse group of data intensive key vertical market segments such as geospatial information systems, entertainment, security and defense, higher education, Internet Service Providers and Managed Service Providers, Oil and Gas, and Health Care.  Our innovative storage systems deliver levels of performance, scalability, versatility and simplicity that exceed existing network storage alternatives. Our Unified Network Storage offerings, called the IceWEB 3000 and IceWEB 5000 are deployed as storage operating system software on our network attached storage (NAS), and storage area network (SAN) hardware products. The IceWEB 3000/5000 Unified Network Storage environments empowers companies to:

 
22

 
 
 
-
Quickly and easily deploy large complex data storage infrastructure environments
 
-
Reduce administrative costs for managing their storage by making complex technical tasks far more simple to accomplish
 
-
Reduce hardware and capital expenditure costs by more effectively using the storage within the system and repurposing older legacy hardware
 
-
Protect their business critical data by leveraging IceWEB 5000’s built-in data replication features
 
-
Integrate with emerging server virtualization software (VMWare, Citrix Xen and Microsoft’s Hyper V) to better manage those solutions

The IceWEB 3000/5000 replaces complex and performance-limited products with high performance, scalable and easy to use systems capable of handling the most data intensive applications and environments.  Our users value the IceWEB 3000/5000s solution because it delivers three key benefits:
 
Performance  - which equals or exceeds all competitive products.
Management – which requires less expertise and time from overburdened technical staffers
Cost – our solutions typically can be deployed  costing two to three times less than those of ours competitors, and are far more feature rich
 
The Competitive Landscape

Traditionally a company such as IceWEB would compete with other storage vendors of similar size, some of those competitors would be Compellent, Isilon, and LeftHand Networks.  In actuality the company more often finds itself becoming an alternative in our customers’ eyes to purchasing additional equipment from large and expensive legacy storage providers such as EMC Corporation, IBM, Hewlett Packard, Network Appliance and Hitachi Data Systems.  What IceWEB is finding is that with data growing at alarming rates within all organizations, budgetary and common sense decision making is creating a 2nd Tier storage marketplace where our IceWEB 5000 is perceived as very compelling.  Customers are recoiling from the high costs and fork-lift upgrades often required by the larger Tier 1 storage providers that would be necessary to accommodate their rapid data growth.  Therefore, rather than purchasing additional expensive solutions from their existing vendors they opt to deploy our product with its versatile and feature rich capabilities in an overflow or project by project type environment.  Because IceWEB 5000 storage space can be purchased two to three times more cheaply than the legacy alternatives, these customers are actually able to purchase ahead of their perceived data growth rate.

Purpose Built Network and Data Appliances

IceWEB has been building Purpose Built Network and Data Appliances for several years.  Purpose Built Network & Data Appliances are devices which provide computer resources (processors & memory), data storage, and specific software for a specific application.  The main appliance products that IceWEB has been building have been centered around a single large business partner.  ESRI Corporation.  IceWEB and ESRI have collaborated to create ultra-high performance IceWEB/ESRI GIS systems that allow customers to analyze data in ways never before possible.  ESRI corporation takes full responsibility for marketing to their customers and business partners, via their worldwide sales and consultancy organization.

IceWEB, in an effort to capitalize on what has been a successful model built within the Geographical Information System space with ESRI has expanded our marketing of our appliance design, manufacturing and support capabilities to additional prospective partners.  In October 2009 IceWEB, Spot Image (a large satellite GIS data provider from France, and Google Corporation agreed that IceWEB would build an appliance to deliver GIS imagery from Spot Image satellite data, powered by Google Earth Enterprise.  This Google Earth Engine appliance will be marketed worldwide through existing Spot Image and Google business partners.  IceWEB has also recently introduced a Cloud Storage Appliance, a device which allows organizations and/or service providers to rapidly and easily deploy cloud based storage services to their constituents and customers.  The company is aggressively pursuing other Purpose Built Appliance opportunities and hopes that this strategy will begin to contribute significantly to our business ramping over the next six month.  Our goal is that the Appliance business segment be grown to contribute approximately 35% of overall business revenue by the end of Fiscal Year 2010.

Cloud Computing Products & Services

Cloud Computing Services
In December 2005, IceWEB launched IceMAIL TM a packaged software service that provides network –hosted groupware, email, and calendaring and collaboration functionality.  Customers are typically organizations wishing to use Microsoft Exchange and Outlook without having to procure, maintain and manage their own equipment and software.   Online services were subsequently expanded to include IcePORTAL TM which provides customers with a complete Intranet portal and IceSECURE TM a hosted email encryption service.  Originally such hosted services were referred to with the acronym ‘SaaS’, which stands for Software-as-a-Service.  Such services, hosted across the internet are today commonly referred to as Cloud Computing.   The benefits of cloud computing are many.  First, adoption of an application, infrastructure, or storage environment which is available on-demand, with no capital expenditures for the user company represents an attractive proposition from the financial perspective.  Secondly, such models greatly reduce the need for highly paid internal technical staff, freeing critical resources to work on more core business related functions.  Thirdly, the application software, hardware, and infrastructure needs of organizations are constantly growing and evolving – Cloud Computing allows ad-hoc allocation of resources, cost free software upgrades, and freedom from hardware/infrastructure obsolescence.

Cloud Storage Appliances (CSA)
Knowing full well there will be many early entrants into the much hyped Cloud Computing marketspace, IceWEB has focused our engineering and research and development efforts on crafting our products to perform as scalable ‘building blocks’ for those companies or service providers wishing to rapidly deploy high performance infrastructure to enable delivery of Cloud based services. In September 2009 IceWEB introduced a line of devices called “Cloud Storage Appliances” (CSA). A cloud storage appliance is a purpose built storage device configured for either branch office or central site deployment which allows the housing and delivery of customer data across not only their internal networking infrastructure, but also to make that data available to employees or business partners securely via the internet (often called the cloud). The CSA line has been built to address concerns within the enterprise marketplace which revolve around hesitation to entrust corporate data to third party providers such as Amazon S3, Mozy, Nirvanix, and others, and to address additional concerns about data access latency and performance. Companies, by implementing our CSA devices, can gain all of the benefits of cloud computing, while mitigating vendor lock-in issues, reducing the potential for security breaches, and maintaining high performance data transfer by back-hauling the data (and replicating it) from remote branch offices across existing wide area network links to the corporate IT infrastructure. An additional obvious benefit derived from the deployment of private or hybrid storage clouds on the CSA products is that companies do not have to pay per-megabyte or per-gigabyte transfer and storage fees to third party service companies.

Sales and Marketing Plans

We intend to sell of all of our products via full “channel-based” model. In a Channel Based sales model, companies with products or services build partnerships with Systems Integrators, other manufacturers, vertical companies (such as ESRI and Spot Image), and distributors and leverage the sales resources of those groups to drive sales of products/services. The value of a Channel Based sales model is twofold. First it allows IceWEB to grow total sales volume significantly while keeping sales staff (and hence SG&A) low. Rather than building a significant worldwide sales force of our own, this model allows to build a small Channel Organization responsible for identification, training and support of partner organizations to ensure their success and productivity. The second value of the Channel Based model is that partners bring their own knowledge of key accounts and have relationships already in place – this compresses the sales cycle, increases the close ratio on new business and funnels more sales into IceWEB products and services.

We have recently signed partnership agreements with Utilipath LLC, Spot Image, and others and are already realizing the value of these relationships as they translate into hard sales.

Manufacturing

Manufacturing is conducted at our headquarters in Sterling, VA. Utilizing chassis from premium manufacturers such as AIC Corporation, Xyratex and others, all systems are built, burned, and tested at this facility by our in-house engineering and production staff.

Competition

The market for IceWEB storage is highly competitive and likely to become even more competitive in the future. Established companies have historically dominated the storage market, including EMC, Network Appliance, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems, Hitachi Data Systems and IBM.

In addition there is additional competition from smaller companies such as Compellent Technologies and LeftHand Networks. In the future, new competitors will emerge as well as increased competition, both domestically and internationally, from other established storage companies.     The principal competitive market factors are:

Industry credibility.
Product scalability, performance and reliability
Ease of installation and management;
Software functionality;
Total cost of ownership;
Customer support
Market presence

IceWEB competes effectively across all of these factors. In particular, our product architecture provides significant competitive advantages in terms of performance, scalability, ease of management and low total cost of ownership .  OEM partners provide us with a significant number of reference account s which address credibility and helps marketing to new customers.

Many of the competitors have longer operating histories, better name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources than we have. Competitors may also be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. Competitors may also have more extensive customer bases and broader customer relationships than us including relationships with potential IceWEB customers.

Intellectual Property

Success in our technological markets depends, in part, upon our ability to obtain and maintain proprietary protection for its products, technology and know-how .  This must be accomplished without infringing the proprietary rights of others and while simultaneously preventing others from infringing upon our own proprietary rights.

IceWEB seeks to protect its proprietary positions by, among other methods, filing patent applications. Patent efforts are focused in the United States and, when justified by cost and strategic importance, we file related foreign patent applications in jurisdictions such as the European Union and Japan. As of September 30, 2008, we applied for three provisional U.S. patents .

Pending patent applications relate to the rapid ingestion of massive amounts of video and other data and other network storage concepts.   It is unknown if any of the patent applications will issue as patents.  The patent applications may be opposed, contested, circumvented, designed around by a third party, or found to be invalid or unenforceable.

Copy right law, trademarks and trade secret agreements are also used to protect and maintain proprietary positions.   Our proprietary information is protected by internal and external controls, including contractual agreements with employees, end-users and channel partners. There is no assurance that these parties will abide by the terms of their agreements.

Trademarks are used on some of the IceWEB products and these distinctive marks may be an important factor in marketing the products.  Inline ® and Inline logo trademarks have been registered in the United States.

Many of the competitors have longer operating histories, better name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources than we have. Competitors may also be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. Competitors may also have more extensive customer bases and broader customer relationships than us, including relationships with potential IWEB customers.

CHANGE IN PRESENTATION

We have changed the presentation of our results for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 to reflect as discontinued operations the results of operations of our IceWEB Virginia, Inc. subsidiary in response to comments from the staff of the SEC.  This change did not result in a restatement of our 2009 financial statements.  As noted above, we sold 100% of the capital stock of our wholly-owned subsidiary, IceWEB Virginia, Inc. to an unrelated party in March, 2009.  Discontinued operations reflect the results from IceWEB Virginia, Inc. through the date of sale. 
 
Our History

We were originally formed under the laws of the State of Delaware in February 1969. For many years, we were a wholesaler of custom one, two, three and four-color processed commercial printing, as well as disposable and durable office equipment including stock paper, fax paper, fax and copy machines, computers, file cabinets and safes. We conducted our business throughout the United States of America and Puerto Rico from our headquarters in New York.

In March 1999, we changed the focus of our business and closed a transaction by which we acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of North Orlando Sports Promotions, Inc., a privately held Florida corporation. From 1999 until July 2001, we operated a variety of Internet-related services; however, we were unable to generate positive cash flow from these Internet-related businesses.

In May 2001, we executed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Stock Purchase Agreement with Disease S.I., Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Disease S.I., Inc. in exchange for 750,000 shares of our common stock. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method for business combinations. Accordingly, the combination of the two companies was recorded as a recapitalization of Disease S.I., Inc., pursuant to which Disease S.I., Inc. was treated as the continuing entity. Disease S.I., Inc. was a developmental stage biopharmaceutical clinical diagnostics company planning to employ a broad array of technologies to detect, identify and quantify substances in blood or other bodily fluids and tissues. It intended to derive revenues from patent sub-licensing fees, royalties from pharmaceutical sales, appropriate milestone payments and research and development contracts.

Following completion of the acquisition of Disease S.I., Inc., it became apparent to us that it would be in our best long-term interest that the Internet operations be conducted apart from the biopharmaceutical clinical diagnostics operations. On July 24, 2001, we sold a former officer and director 100% of our subsidiary North Orlando Sports Promotions, Inc., in exchange for the assumption of all liabilities related to North Orlando Sports Promotions, Inc. and its operations estimated at approximately $112,000, and which included the forgiveness of $91,500 in accrued compensation. Included in the sale along with the capital stock of North Orlando Sports Promotions, Inc. were fixed assets, rights to several domain names and various contractual rights and obligations.

On November 27, 2001, we acquired 9,050,833 shares of the common stock of Healthspan Sciences, Inc., a privately held California corporation in exchange for 5,000 shares of our common stock in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on Section 4(2) of that act. This agreement was rescinded on March 21, 2002. Pursuant to the rescission, Healthspan Sciences, Inc. returned all 5,000 shares of our common stock issued in the exchange and we returned all 9,050,833 shares of Healthspan Sciences, Inc. which we had received.

On March 21, 2002, we executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with IceWEB Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its stockholders. Founded in 2000, IceWEB Communications, Inc. enabled interactive communications and education on the web. In June 2001, it had acquired the assets in bankruptcy of Learning Stream, Inc., a provider of streaming services. Pursuant to the agreement, each of the 22,720,500 shares of common stock of IceWEB Communications, Inc. issued and outstanding immediately prior to the merger were converted into the right to receive 0.13375 shares of our common stock, for an aggregate of 303,888 shares of common stock. Each of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 680,125 shares of IceWEB Communications, Inc. common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the merger were converted into the right to receive one warrant to purchase 0.13375 shares of our common stock upon exercise of said warrant.

 In June 2003, we acquired 100% of the capital stock of Interlan Communications, Inc., a privately held corporation, in exchange for 25,000 shares of our common stock. In June 2003, we also acquired 100% of the capital stock of Seven Corporation in exchange for 37,500 shares of our common stock and cash consideration of $123,000. As described later in this section, we sold Seven Corporation in February 2007.

In October 2003, we acquired 19% of the capital stock of IceWEB 5000, Inc. of Virginia, together with substantially all of its assets including software licenses, source code, potential patents and trademarks for a combined stock and cash value of approximately $632,000 which included the issuance of 191,381 shares of our common stock and cash consideration of $65,500.

  In May 2004, we acquired substantially all of the assets of DevElements, Inc. of Virginia, including software licenses, source code, potential patents and trademarks, cash, hardware, and equipment. As consideration for the purchase of the assets, we paid DevElements $100,000 and agreed to the assumption of liabilities up to an aggregate of $150,000. In exchange for the 19% interest in DevElements, we issued to the stockholders of DevElements 187,500 shares of our common stock and options to purchase 187,500 shares of common stock exercisable at a price of $27.20 per share and expiring May 13, 2009. We issued to the stockholders options to purchase 6,250 shares, which were contingently exercisable upon the satisfaction of certain performance criteria. The performance criteria, which required contracts, task orders and other work assignments involving billing of at least $840,000 during the six-month period ending November 13, 2004, was not met and the options were cancelled.

On October 18, 2004, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Plan Graphics, Inc. The transaction was subject to approval by the Plan Graphics, Inc. stockholders, and certain terms and conditions, including terms and conditions which are customary to this type of transaction. On April 29, 2005 the letter of intent expired without a definitive agreement having been executed or all conditions precedent to the closing having been completed.

In March 2006 we acquired PatriotNet, Inc., an Internet service provider, for total consideration of $290,000 of which $190,000 was paid in cash and $100,000 was paid through the issuance of 100,000 shares of our common stock. We granted Patriot Computer Group, Inc., the seller in the transaction, certain piggyback registration rights for the 100,000 shares of our common stock issued as partial consideration in the transaction. At the time of the acquisition, the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the assets acquired by $390,600 which we treated as goodwill for accounting purposes. From the date of acquisition through September 30, 2007 revenues from PatriotNet were approximately $316,000 and represented approximately 6% of our consolidated revenues. On December 1, 2006 we sold PatriotNet to Leros Online, Inc., a third party, for $150,000 in cash and the assumption of $60,000 in liabilities. At September 30, 2007 we recorded goodwill impairment of $180,000 related to this transaction.

On December 1, 2006 we sold 100% of the capital stock of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Integrated Power Solutions, Inc. to Mr. John Younts, our Vice President of Integrated Power Solutions and a key employee, for the assumption of approximately $180,000 in liabilities and the payment of $12,000 we owed him. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, revenues for Integrated Power Solutions were approximately $457,000, or approximately, 9.5%, of our total sales.

On November 15, 2006, we acquired certain of the assets of True North Solutions related to its governmental customer business for $350,000 of which $250,000 was paid in cash and the balance was paid through the delivery of a $100,000 principal amount promissory note secured by collateral pledge of the assets, payable immediately upon accomplishment of the novation of the GSA Schedule. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired the customers, forecast, contract renewals, and GSA schedule of True North Solutions. We permitted True North Solutions to use the purchased assets until December 31, 2006 pursuant to which we acted as the seller’s subcontractor until the novation of the GSA Schedule was complete. The novation of the GSA schedule was completed in March, 2008.

On February 16, 2007 we sold 100% of the outstanding stock of our subsidiary, The Seven Corporation of Virginia, Inc., to PC NET in exchange for the waiver of approximately $11,000 we owed PC NET. Under the terms of the agreement we may not engage in any staffing services businesses as The Seven Corporation had conducted for a period of at least two years. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006 revenues from The Seven Corporation were $360,000 or approximately 7.5%, of our total sales.

On December 22, 2007, we acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Inline for $2,412,731 in cash, plus 503,356 shares of IceWEB common stock valued at $276,846, the fair market value on the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations are included in the financial statements of operations from the date of acquisition. Inline is a leading provider of intelligent enterprise data storage solutions and services for the geospatial intelligence marketplace. Inline’s proprietary products include reliable, high performance Storage Area Network Solutions, Network Attached Storage, and Direct Attached Storage and the rapidly expanding OEM Storage Centric Appliances. Today, Inline has developed its fifth generation of advanced data storage solutions, marketed under the brands TruEnterprise and FileStorm. All Inline systems function in a heterogeneous operating system environment, including Windows, UNIX and Linux.

There are no family relationship between any of the executive officers and directors. Directors are elected at our annual meeting of stockholders and hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until his or her resignation, removal, or death. In addition to their individual skills and backgrounds which are focused on our industry as well as financial and managerial experience, we believe that the collectively skills and experience of our Board members are well suited to guide us as we continue to grow our company.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has created both an Audit Committee and a Compensation Committee. We do not have a Nominating Committee or any committee performing a similar function. The functions that such a committee would undertake are being undertaken by the entire board as a whole. We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates which may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Board of Directors established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our Board has not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board of Directors or any inquiry as to what the procedures may be if a stockholder wished to make such a recommendation.  Since 2008 the Board has been developing a nominating and approval process and policy to guide the handling of potential recommendations of board candidates. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors was formed to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities for the integrity of our consolidated financial statements, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, and the performance of our internal audit function and independent auditors. The Audit Committee will also prepare the report that SEC rules require be included in our annual proxy statement. The Audit Committee has adopted a charter which sets forth the parameters of its authority The Audit Committee Charter provides that the Audit Committee is empowered to:
 
Appoint, compensate, and oversee the work of the independent registered public accounting firm employed by our company to conduct the annual audit. This firm will report directly to the audit committee;
Resolve any disagreements between management and the auditor regarding financial reporting;
Pre-approve all auditing and permitted non-audit services performed by our external audit firm;
Retain independent counsel, accountants, or others to advise the committee or assist in the conduct of an investigation;
Seek any information it requires from employees - all of whom are directed to cooperate with the committee’s requests - or external parties;
Meet with our officers, external auditors, or outside counsel, as necessary; and
The committee may delegate authority to subcommittees, including the authority to pre-approve all auditing and permitted non-audit services, provided that such decisions are presented to the full committee at its next scheduled meeting.

 
32

 

Each Audit Committee member is required to:

satisfy the independence requirements of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and all rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC as well as the rules imposed by the stock exchange or other marketplace on which our securities may be listed from time to time, and
meet the definitions of “non-employee director” for purposes of SEC Rule 16b-3 and “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Each committee member is required to be financially literate and at least one member is to be designated as the “financial expert,” as defined by applicable legislation and regulation. No committee member is permitted to simultaneously serve on the audit committees of more than two other public companies. Mr. Pirtle is considered an “audit committee financial expert” under the definition under Item 407 of Regulation S-K. As we expand our Board of Directors with additional independent directors the number of directors serving on the Audit Committee will also increase.

  A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is available on our website at www.iceweb.com under the “Investor Relations” tab.

Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee was appointed by the Board to discharge the Board’s responsibilities relating to:
 
compensation of our executives,
equity-based compensation plans, including, without limitation, stock option and restricted stock plans, in which officers or employees may participate, and
arrangements with executive officers relating to their employment relationships with our company, including employment agreements, severance agreements, supplemental pension or savings arrangements, change in control agreements and restrictive covenants.

The Compensation Committee has adopted a charter. The Compensation Committee charter provides that the Compensation Committee has overall responsibility for approving and evaluating executive officer compensation plans, policies and programs of our company, as well as all equity-based compensation plans and policies. In addition, the Compensation Committee oversees, reviews and approves all of our ERISA and other employee benefit plans which we may establish from time to time. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for producing an annual report on executive compensation for inclusion in our proxy statement and assisting in the preparation of certain information to be included in other periodic reports filed with the SEC.

Each Compensation Committee member is required to:
 
satisfy the independence requirements of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and all rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC as well as the rules imposed by the stock exchange or other marketplace on which our securities may be listed from time to time, and
meet the definitions of “non-employee director” for purposes of SEC Rule 16b-3 and “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Pursuant to our Compensation Committee Charter, the Compensation Committee is charged with evaluating and recommending for approval by the Board of Directors the compensation of our executive officers. In addition, the Compensation Committee also evaluates and makes recommendations to the entire Board of Directors regarding grants of options which may be made as director compensation. The Compensation Committee does not delegate these authorities to any other persons nor does it use the services of any compensation consultants.

Messrs. Compton, Druzak and Bush are the members of our Compensation Committee. As we expand our Board of Directors with additional independent directors the number of directors serving on the Compensation Committee will also increase. A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter is available on our website at www.iceweb.com under the “Investor Relations” tab.

Code of Ethics

In May 2005, we adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to our Chief Executive Officer, principal financial and accounting officers and persons performing similar functions. A Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is a written standard designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

honest and ethical conduct,
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in regulatory filings and public statements,

 
33

 

compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations,
the prompt reporting violation of the code, and
accountability for adherence to the Code.

  A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is filed as an exhibit to this annual report. We will provide a copy, without charge, to any person desiring a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, by written request to us at our principal offices to the attention of Corporate Secretary.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

In August 2000, our Board of Directors adopted our 2000 Management and Director Equity Incentive and Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan was approved by our stockholders in August 2001. As amended in May 2006, June, 2007, February, 2009, and October, 2009, we have reserved an aggregate of 60,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Plan. At December 31, 2010 we have outstanding options to purchase 8,144,404 shares of our common stock under the Plan. Our Board of Directors (or at their discretion a committee of our Board members) administers the Plan including, without limitation, the selection of recipients of awards under the Plan, the granting of stock options, restricted shares or performance shares, the determination of the terms and conditions of any such awards, the interpretation of the Plan and any other action they deem appropriate in connection with the administration of the Plan.

The purpose of the Plan is to advance our interests and those of our stockholders by providing a means of attracting and retaining key employees, directors and consultants. In order to serve this purpose, we believe the Plan encourages and enables key employees, directors and consultants to participate in our future prosperity and growth by providing them with incentives and compensation based on our performance, development and financial success. Participants in the Plan may include our officers, directors, other key employees and consultants who have responsibilities affecting our management, development or financial success.

Awards may be made under the Plan in the form of Plan options, shares of our common stock subject to a vesting schedule based upon certain performance objectives (“performance shares”) and shares subject to a vesting schedule based on the recipient’s continued employment (“restricted shares”). Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or options that do not so qualify. Any incentive stock option granted under our Plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our common stock must be at least 110% of such fair market value as determined on the date of the grant. Only persons who are our officers or other key employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options and performance share grants. Any non-qualified stock option granted under our Plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 50% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such grant.

 
36

 

The term of each Plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the Board of Directors, provided that no Plan option may be exercisable more than three years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The exercise price of the stock options may be paid in either:

cash, or
 
delivery of unrestricted shares of our common stock having a fair market value on the date of delivery equal to the exercise price, or
 
surrender of shares of our common stock subject to the stock option which has a fair market value equal to the total exercise price at the time of exercise, or
 
a combination of the foregoing methods.

All Plan options are nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of the optionee, may be exercised only by such optionee. At the discretion of the Board of Directors, it may approve the irrevocable transfer, without payment, of non-qualified options to the option holder’s spouse, children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews, or to the trustee of a trust for the principal benefit of one or more such persons, or to a partnership whose partners are one or more of such persons. If an optionee’s employment is terminated for any reason, other than due to his or her death, disability or termination for cause, or if an optionee is not our employee but is a member of our Board of Directors and his or her service as a director is terminated for any reason, other than due to his or her death or disability, the Plan option granted may be exercised on the earlier of the expiration date or 90 days following the date of termination. If the optionee dies during the term of his or her employment, the Plan option granted to him or her shall lapse to the extent unexercised on the earlier of the expiration date of the Plan option or the date one year following the date of the optionee’s death. If the optionee’s employment, membership on the Board of Directors or engagement as a consultant terminates by reason of the optionee’s retirement, then the Plan option granted may be exercised until the earlier of 90 days following the date of termination or the expiration date. If the optionee is permanently and totally disabled within the meaning of Section 22(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Plan option granted to him or her lapses to the extent unexercised on the earlier of the expiration date of the option or one year following the date of such disability.

At the time of the restricted share grant, the Board of Directors may determine the vesting schedule of such shares and that after vesting, such shares may be further restricted as to transferability or be subject to repurchase by us or forfeiture upon the occurrence of certain events. Awards of restricted shares must be accepted by the participant within 30 days of the grant.

At the time of the award of performance shares, the Board of Directors shall establish a range of performance goals to be achieved during the performance period, including, without limitation, earnings, return on capital, or any performance goal approved by our stockholders in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Attainment of the highest performance goal for the performance period will earn 100% of the performance shares awarded for the performance period; failure to attain the lowest performance goal will result in the participant earning no performance shares. Attainment of the performance goals will be calculated from our financial statements, excluding changes in federal income tax rates and the effect of non-recurring and extraordinary items. The performance goals may vary for different performance periods and need not be the same for each participant receiving an award during a performance period.

If the participant’s employment by us, membership on our Board of Directors, or engagement by us as a consultant is terminated before the end of any performance period, or upon the participant’s death, retirement or disability, the Board of Directors, taking into consideration the performance of such participant and our performance over the performance period, may authorize the issuance to the participant or his or her legal representative or designated beneficiary all or a portion of the performance shares which would have been issued to him or her had the participant’s employment, Board membership or consulting engagement continued to the end of the performance period. If the participant’s employment, Board membership or consulting engagement terminates before the end of the performance period for any other reason, all performance shares are forfeited.

 
37

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to any stockholder approval or other requirements of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Board of Directors in its discretion and as determined at the time of award of the performance shares, may provide the participant with the option of receiving cash in lieu of the performance shares in an amount determined at the time of award including, without limitation, by one or more of the following methods:
 
 
the fair market value of the number of shares subject to the performance shares agreement on the date of award, or
 
part or all of any increase in the fair market value since such date, or
  
part or all of any dividends paid or payable on the number of shares subject to the performance share agreement, or
   
any other amounts which in the Board’s sole discretion are reasonably related to the achievement of the applicable performance goals, or
 
any combination of the foregoing.
 
The purchase price for restricted shares or performance shares granted under the Plan shall be set by the Board of Directors but may not be less than par value. Payment of the purchase price for the restricted shares or performance share may be made in either,
 
 
cash, or
 
by delivery of unrestricted shares of our common stock having a fair
  
market value on the date of such delivery equal to the total
  
purchase price, or
  
a combination of either of these methods.

The restricted stock awards, performance stock awards and stock options are subject to accelerated vesting in the event of our change of control. We may, at our option, terminate all unexercised stock options 30 days after a change in control and pay to the participant holding these unexercised options cash in an amount equal to the difference between fair market value and the exercise price of the stock option. If the fair market value is less than the exercise price, we may terminate the options without payment to the holder. The per share purchase price of shares subject to Plan options granted under the Plan or related to performance share awards or restricted share awards may be adjusted in the event of certain changes in our capitalization, but any such adjustment shall not change the total purchase price payable upon the exercise in full of such option or award. No participant in our Plan has any rights as a stockholder until the shares subject to the Plan options or stock awards have been duly issued and delivered to him or her.

We have an option to purchase any shares of our common stock which have been issued to Plan participants pursuant to restricted stock awards, performance stock awards or stock options if the participant ceases to be our employee, a member of our Board of Directors or a consultant to us for any reason. We must exercise our repurchase right at the time of termination. The purchase price for any shares we repurchase will be equal to the fair market value of the our total stockholders’ equity divided by the total outstanding shares of our common stock on the last day of that calendar month, calculated on a fully-diluted basis. If we exercise our repurchase right, we much close the transaction within 20 days from the termination date. At closing, we are entitled to delivery of a one-year promissory note as payment for the purchase price or, at our option, we may pay same in cash at closing.

We also have a right of first refusal to meet the offer if the holder of any shares of our common stock awarded or issued pursuant to our Plan desires to sell such shares to a third party.

The Board of Directors may amend, suspend or terminate our Plan at any time, except that no amendment shall be made which: 
 
 
affects outstanding Plan options or any exercise right thereunder, or
 
extends the term of any Plan option beyond 10 years, or
 
extends the termination date of the Plan.

 
38

 

Unless the Plan shall be earlier suspended or terminated, the Plan shall terminate 10 years from the date of the Plan’s adoption by our stockholders. Any such termination of our Plan shall not affect the validity of any Plan options previously granted there under.

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

         Under our certificate of incorporation, our directors are not liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except in connection with:

o
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
o
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law;

o
a transaction from which our director received an improper benefit; or
o
an act or omission for which the liability of a director is expressly provided under Delaware law.

         In addition, our bylaws provides that we must indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law for all expenses incurred in the settlement of any actions against such persons in connection with their having served as officers or directors.

           Insofar as the limitation of, or indemnification for, liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such limitation or indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

From time to time we have borrowed operating funds from our Mr. John Signorello, our Chief Executive Officer, for working capital.  The advances were payable upon demand and were interest free.  During fiscal 2007 Mr. Signorello advanced $28,319 to us, and we repaid $36,422. The highest amount that we owed Mr. Signorello during fiscal 2007 was $15,000.  During fiscal 2008 Mr. Signorello advanced $20,782 to us, and we repaid $20,782. The highest amount that we owed Mr. Signorello during fiscal 2008 was $20,000.  During fiscal 2009 Mr. Signorello advanced $66,300 to us, and we repaid $66,300. The highest amount that we owed Mr. Signorello during fiscal 2009 was $25,000.At each of the last three fiscal year ends, 2007, 2008, and 2009, the amount owed to Mr. Signorello was $0.  As of December 31, 2010, the amount owed to Mr. Signorello was $0.

On August 28, 2007 we sold 350,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.50, valued at $175,000 to Harold Compton, a member of our Board of Directors.  The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.67 per share.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 25% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

On June 8, 2009 we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.04, valued at $40,000 to Jack Bush, a member of our Board of Directors. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.07 per share.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 43% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

On August 10, 2009 we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.04, valued at $40,000 to Joseph Druzak, a member of our Board of Directors. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.10 per share.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 60% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

During March, 2009, we sold 2,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.042, valued at $83,000 to Florence Signorello, an accredited investor who is the mother of John Signorello, our chief executive officer. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.145 per share. As of June 30, 2010 we had not received the proceeds from the investor and as a result we recorded the subscription receivable as a contra equity account on our balance sheet.

 
39

 

During November, 2009, we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $130,000 to Hal Compton, a member of our Board of Director for $40,000, and recognized stock based compensation expense of $90,000.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 69% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

We and certain of our affiliates have entered into a series of transactions involving VOIS Inc. (OTCBB: VOIS), a public company which had developed and launched a social commerce website.  On November 3, 2009 we purchased 160,000,000 shares of the common stock of VOIS Inc., which represented approximately 16% of that company, for $48,000 in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of that act resulting in gross proceeds to us of $48,000. At the time of our investment, Mr. Mark Lucky, our Chief Financial Officer, was a member of VOIS’ board of directors, having been elected in October 2009.  In exchange for this strategic interest, VOIS received non-exclusive access to distribute IceMAIL, IcePORTAL and IceSECURE to their existing and prospective new user base, and our cloud storage network.  Mr. Lucky resigned his positions with VOIS in September 2010.  As of the date hereof, VOIS has not integrated this access within its business and we have had no subsequent business relationship with it, other than as set forth herein.

Prior to our investment in VOIS, both Messrs. John R. Signorello and Robert Druzak had personal relationships with the founders of VOIS.  In an unrelated transaction in November 2009 Mr. Signorello, a member of our board of directors and our CEO, purchased 225,000,000 shares of VOIS’ common stock from a former officer and director of VOIS for nominal consideration in a private transaction.  The shares of common stock purchased by Mr. Signorello represented approximately 27% of VOIS’ outstanding common stock purchase of the shares by us.  Thereafter, in an unrelated transaction in January 2010 Mr. Druzak purchased 225,000,000 shares of VOIS’ common stock from a former officer and director of VOIS for nominal consideration in a private transaction.  The shares of common stock purchased by Mr. Druzak represented approximately 22% of VOIS’ outstanding common stock.  Immediately following the closing of this transaction Mr. Druzak was appointed to VOIS’ board of directors and named President and Chief Executive Officer of VOIS.  Mr. Druzak, the brother of Joseph Druzak, a member of our board, was formerly a vice president of our company from March 2005 to January, 2010, but was not considered an executive officer of our company.  Mr. Robert Druzak resigned his positions with VOIS in March 2010.

While, five out of the 6 board members qualify as unrelated and independent, as they are independent from management and free from any interest, function, business or other relationship that could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially, interfere with the Director’s ability to act in the our best interest, we do not have any policies or procedures for the review, approval or ratification of any related party transactions and no review or ratification of any of the foregoing related party truncations by our board has occurred.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

At December 31, 2010, there were 138,675,867 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. Our common stock is the only outstanding class of our voting securities. The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2010, information known to us relating to the beneficial ownership of these shares by:
 
each person who is the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of common stock;
each director;
each named executive officer; and
 
all named executive officers and directors as a group.

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each beneficial owner in the table set forth below is care of 22900 Shaw Road, Suite 111, Sterling, Virginia 20166.

We believe that all persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of beneficially owned by them. Under securities laws, a person is considered to be the beneficial owner of securities he owns and that can be acquired by him within 60 days from December 31, 2010 upon the exercise of options, warrants, convertible securities or other understandings. We determine a beneficial owner’s percentage ownership by assuming that options, warrants or convertible securities that are held by him, but not those held by any other person and which are exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 2010, have been exercised or converted. Unless otherwise noted, the address of each of these principal stockholders is our principal executive offices.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We are registering these shares pursuant to the registration rights granted to the Selling Stockholders in connection with a registration rights agreement with the Selling Stockholders.  The Selling Stockholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock offered for resale by them under this prospectus.  We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of shares of our common stock by the Selling Stockholders covered by this prospectus; however, we will receive proceeds from cash payments made in connection with the exercise of warrants held by Selling Stockholders that are covered by this prospectus. We expect to use the proceeds received from the exercise of the warrants, if any, for working capital and general corporate purposes.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

We are registering for resale shares of our common stock. We are registering the shares to permit the selling stockholders and their pledgees, donees, transferees and other successors-in-interest that receive their shares from a selling stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale related transfer after the date of this prospectus to resell the shares when and as they deem appropriate in the manner described in the “Plan of Distribution.” The information included below is based on information that has been provided to us by or on behalf of the selling stockholders. The information assumes all of the shares covered hereby are sold or otherwise disposed of by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus. However, we do not know whether the selling stockholders will in fact sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock listed next to their names below.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

         Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. As of December 31, 2010 there were 138,675,867 shares of common stock and 626,667 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding.

COMMON STOCK

         Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the Board of Directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, subject to the preferences of any shares of preferred stock which may then be authorized and outstanding, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

 
45

 

         Holders of common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption provisions for the common stock. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to any rights that may be fixed for holders of preferred stock, when and if any preferred stock is authorized and issued. All outstanding shares of common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

  PREFERRED STOCK

We are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock issuable in such series and bearing such voting, dividend, conversion, liquidation and other rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine. The preferred stock is so-called "blank check" preferred stock, which means that our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, are able to issue the shares of preferred stock in one or more series of classes having such terms, designations and preferences as determined by the Board of Directors and without authorization or confirmation by our stockholders.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

The designations, rights and preferences of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock provide:

no dividends are payable on the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. So long as these shares are outstanding, we cannot pay dividends on our common stock nor can it redeem any shares of its common stock, the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights, except as may be provided under Delaware law,

so long as the shares are outstanding, we cannot change the designations of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, create a class of securities that in the instance of payment of dividends or distribution of assets upon our liquidation ranks senior to or pari passu with the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or increase the number of authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the shares carry a liquidation preference of $0.2727 per share,

each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into one share of our common stock based upon an initial conversion value of $0.2727 per share. The conversation ratio is subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits or reclassification of our common stock. The conversion ratio is also subject to adjustment in the event we should sell any shares of its common stock or securities convertible into common stock at an effective price less than the conversion ratio then in effect, in which case the conversion ratio would be reduced to the lesser price. No conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may occur if a conversion would result in the holder, and any of its affiliates beneficially owning more than 4.9% of our outstanding common shares following such conversion. This provision may be waived or amended only with the consent of the holders of all of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the consent of the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock who are not affiliates,

so long as the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding, we have agreed not to issue any rights, options or warrants to holders of its common stock entitling the holders to purchase shares of its common stock at less than the conversion ratio without the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. If we should elect to undertake such an issuance and the Series B holders consent, the conversion ratio would be reduced. Further, if we should make a distribution of any evidence of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for any security to our common stockholders, the conversion value would be readjusted,

the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock automatically convert into shares of our common stock in the event of change of control of our company, and

so long as the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, we cannot sell or issue any common stock, rights to subscribe for shares of common stock or securities which are convertible or exercisable into shares of common stock at an effective purchase price of less than the then conversion value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

During fiscal 2009, the remaining 626,667 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were acquired from the original holders by John Signorello, our CEO, for total consideration of $75,000.

 
46

 

On the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, the effective conversion price was at a discount to the price of the common stock into which it was convertible. In fiscal 2006, we recorded a $500,000 preferred stock dividend related to the beneficial conversion feature and the fair value of the warrants granted in connection with the preferred stock.

The warrants issued in conjunction with the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock transaction were fully converted into shares of our common stock in fiscal 2008.  There are no outstanding warrants related to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock transaction.

COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS

We currently have outstanding common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,142,100 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.20 per share to $2.00 per share. These warrants expire between May 31, 2011 and February 28, 2015. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to pro-rata adjustment in the event of stock splits, recapitalizations and similar corporate events.

TRANSFER AGENT

Our transfer agent is Olde Monmouth Stock Transfer, 200 Memorial Pkwy, Atlantic Highlands, NJ 07716. Its telephone number is (732) 872-2727.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

As of December 31, 2010 there were 138,675,867 shares of common stock and 626,667 shares of Series B preferred stock issued and outstanding, of which approximately 49,196,994 are "restricted securities." In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person, or person whose shares are aggregated, who is not our affiliate or has not been an affiliate during the prior three months and owns shares that were purchased from us, or any affiliate, at least six months previously, is entitled to make unlimited public resales of such shares provided there is current public information available at the time of the resales. After a one-year holding period a non-affiliate is entitled to make unlimited public resales of our shares without the requirement that current public information be available at the time of the resales. A person, or persons whose shares are aggregated, who are affiliates of our company and own shares that were purchased from us, or any affiliate, at least six months previously is entitled to sell within any three month period, a number of shares of our common stock that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and the availability of current public information about us.
 
Future sales of restricted common stock under Rule 144 could negatively impact the market price of our common stock. We are unable to estimate the number of shares that may be sold in the future by our existing stockholders or the effect, if any, that sales of shares by such stockholders will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock by existing stockholders could adversely affect prevailing market prices.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
IceWEB, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IceWEB, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of IceWEB, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as of September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had net losses of $6,964,233 and $2,526,602 respectively, for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

IceWEB, Inc. (the “Company”) began trading publicly in April 2002. Utilizing resources gained through acquisitions, we have developed two lines of business, IceWEB Storage products, and IceMAIL which is a hosted Microsoft Exchange application service.  We currently have two wholly owned operating subsidiaries: IceWEB Storage Corporation (formerly known as Inline Corporation), and IceWEB Online, Inc.

BUSINESS OF ICEWEB

Since 2005, the Company has been focused on serving the commercial and federal markets with network security products and proprietary on-line software solutions.  In 2008, the Company narrowed its focus and expanded its capabilities by acquiring INLINE Corporation, a data storage manufacturing company.

In March, 2009, the Company sold its wholly owned subsidiary, IceWEB Virginia, Inc. to an unrelated third party, and in the process exited its low-margin IT re-seller business products business to further focus on the higher margin data storage manufacturing business.

At the close of fiscal year 2010, the Company has three key product offerings:

• 
Unified Network Storage Solutions
• 
Purpose Built Network/Data Appliances
• 
Cloud Computing Products/Services

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to previously reported amounts to conform to 2010 amounts. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or shareholders’ deficit.

Going Concern

Our auditors stated in their report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 that we have had losses since inception that raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition and as discussed further in Note 6, we are not in compliance with debt covenants under our Financing Agreements with Sand Hill Finance LLC. For the year ended September 30, 2010 we incurred a net loss of $6,964,233.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue in existence.

Management has established plans intended to increase the sales of our products and services. Management intends to seek new capital from new equity securities offerings to provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund growth, and implement its business plan. However, no assurances can be given that we will be able to raise any additional funds.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and deposits approximated fair value as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments and their market interest rates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Marketable Securities

IceWEB accounts for the purchase of marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 320, “Investment – Debt and Equity Securities” with any unrealized gains and losses included as a net amount as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.  However, those securities may not have the trading volume to support the stock price if the Company were to sell all their shares in the open market at once, so the Company may have a loss on the sale of marketable securities even though they record marketable equity securities at the current market value.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheets and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2010 and 2009 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the allowance for inventory obsolescence and the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, and litigation reserves.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consists of normal trade receivables. We recorded a bad debt allowance of $309,000 as of September 30, 2010. Management performs ongoing evaluations of its accounts receivable. Management believes that all remaining receivables are fully collectable. Bad debt expense amounted to $336,568 and $29,324 for the Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market, on an average cost basis.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, net consists of the cost of acquired customer relationships. We capitalize and amortize the cost of acquired intangible assets over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful life of our acquired customer relationships is five years.

Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” (formerly SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”), we review the carrying value of intangibles and other long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $162,862 in fiscal 2010 and $77,549 million in fiscal 2009.

Revenue Recognition

We follow the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (formerly Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”) for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenues streams:

Revenues from sales of products are generally recognized when products are shipped unless the Company has obligations remaining under sales or licensing agreements, in which case revenue is either deferred until all obligations are satisfied or recognized ratably over the term of the contract.

Revenue from services is recorded as it is earned. Commissions earned on third party sales are recorded in the month in which contracts are awarded. Customers are generally billed every two weeks based on the units of production for the project. Each project has an estimated total which is based on the estimated units of production and agreed upon billing rates. Amounts billed in advance of services being provided are recorded as deferred revenues and recognized in the consolidated statement of operations as services are provided.

Earnings per Share

We compute earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (formerly SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”) Under the provisions of ASC Topic 260, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of the common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) and upon the conversion of convertible preferred stock (using the if-converted method). Potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the calculation if their effect is antidilutive.  At September 30, 2010, there were options and warrants to purchase 19,891,504 shares of common stock, 626,667 shares issuable upon conversion of Series B preferred stock, and no shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

As more fully described in Note 12, we have a stock option plan that provides for non-qualified and incentive stock options to be issued to directors, officers, employees and consultants (the 2000 Management and Director Equity Incentive and Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

Prior to October 1, 2005, we accounted for stock options issued under the Plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees , and related interpretations, as permitted by ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payments. No stock-based compensation cost related to employee stock options was recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended September 30, 2005 as all options granted under the Plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

Effective October 1, 2005, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payments using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the year ended September 30, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of September 30, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to October 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R). Financial results for the year ended September 30, 2005 have not been restated.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASU 2010-06”) which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that require new disclosures regarding (1) transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 fair value measurements and (2) activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, ASU 2010-06 clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The guidance in ASU 2010-06 became effective for the Company’s second quarter of fiscal year 2010 and the disclosures required by this adoption are included in Note 2 “Fair Value Measurements”, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2008, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that requires enhanced annual disclosures about the plan assets of a Company’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans intended to provide users of financial statements with a greater understanding of: (1) how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies; (2) the major categories of plan assets; (3) the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; (4) the effect of fair value measurements, using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on changes in plan assets for the period; and (5) significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. The new guidance resulted in enhanced disclosures beginning with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010 included herein.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued new accounting and disclosure guidance related to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries (previously referred to as minority interests), which was effective for the Company on October 1, 2009. Among other things, the new guidance requires that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary be presented as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity. It also requires that consolidated net income be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the non-controlling interests. The new guidance has been applied prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which have been applied retrospectively to all periods presented herein.
 
In June 2008, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”, was amended to require that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) be treated as participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. This amendment became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years, and requires that all prior period earnings per share data presented (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings and selected financial data) be adjusted retrospectively to conform to its provisions. This Topic became effective October 1, 2009, and did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2008, ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”, was amended to include a list of factors an entity should consider in developing renewal or extension assumptions used in determining the useful life of recognized intangible assets. The new guidance applies to (1) intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets and (2) intangible assets acquired in both business combinations and asset acquisitions. Under this amendment, entities estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset must consider their historical experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements or, in the absence of historical experience, must consider assumptions that market participants would use about renewal or extension. This amendment required certain additional disclosures beginning October 1, 2009, and prospective application to useful life estimates prospectively for intangible assets acquired after September 30, 2009. This Topic became effective October 1, 2009, and did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB amended its guidance on accounting for business combinations. The new accounting guidance was effective for the company on October 1, 2009, and is being applied prospectively to all business combinations subsequent to the effective date. Among other things, the new guidance amends the principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. It also establishes new disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and the impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future periods will depend on the nature and size of business combinations completed subsequent to the date of adoption.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted (continued)

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, “Subsequent Events (Topic 855)” (“ASU 2010-09”) which provides an update to Topic 855, “Subsequent Events”. This update clarifies that an SEC filer is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued and removes the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This guidance became effective upon issuance and has been adopted by the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted as of September 30, 2010

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition - Milestone Method (Topic 605)” (“ASU 2010-17”) which provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for certain revenue transactions. This guidance is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (fiscal year 2011 for the Company). This accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, ASC Topic 810 was amended to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities. This Topic addresses (1) the effects on certain provisions regarding the consolidation of variable interest entities, as a result of the elimination of the qualifying special-purpose entity concept in ASC Topic 860 regarding the accounting for transfers of financial assets, and (2) concern about the application of certain key provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), including those in which the accounting and disclosures under the Interpretation do not always provide timely and useful information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 (fiscal year 2011 for the Company), for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for revenue recognition with multiple deliverables. This guidance impacts the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting. Additionally, this new accounting guidance modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables by no longer permitting the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration. The new guidance is effective for the Company prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Early adoption is permitted. This accounting guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, “Receivables (Topic 310) - Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” (“ASU 2010-20”) which requires additional disclosures about an entity’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. These amendments affect all entities with financing receivables, excluding short-term accounts receivable or receivables measured at fair value or lower of cost or fair value. The guidance on disclosures as of the end of a reporting period will be effective for the Company on December 31, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for the Company’s second quarter of fiscal year 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

From time to time we have borrowed operating funds from Mr. John Signorello, our Chief Executive Officer, for working capital.  The advances were payable upon demand and were interest free.  During fiscal 2009 Mr. Signorello advanced $66,300 to us, and we repaid $66,300. The highest amount that we owed Mr. Signorello during fiscal 2009 was $25,000. At each of the last three fiscal year ends, 2008, 2009, and 2010, the amount owed to Mr. Signorello was $0.  As of December 13, 2010, the amount owed to Mr. Signorello was $0.

On June 8, 2009 we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.04, valued at $40,000 to Jack Bush, a member of our Board of Directors. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.07 per share.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 43% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (continued)

On August 10, 2009 we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.04, valued at $40,000 to Joseph Druzak, a member of our Board of Directors. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.10 per share.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 60% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.
 
During October, 2009, we sold 2,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.042, valued at $83,000 to Florence Signorello, an accredited investor who is the mother of John Signorello, our chief executive officer. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of the transaction was $0.145 per share. As of June 30, 2010 we had not received the proceeds from the investor and as a result we recorded the subscription receivable as a contra equity account on our balance sheet.
 
During November, 2009, we sold 1,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $130,000 to Hal Compton, a member of our Board of Director for $40,000, and recognized stock based compensation expense of $90,000.  The shares were issued at a discount to the fair market value of our common stock of approximately 69% due to their restricted status, because we needed the cash, our access to capital was limited, and it was the price negotiated and agreed to by the buyer.

We and certain of our affiliates have entered into a series of transactions involving VOIS Inc. (OTCBB: VOIS), a public company which had developed and launched a social commerce website.  On November 3, 2009 we purchased 160,000,000 shares of the common stock of VOIS Inc., which represented approximately 16% of that company, for $48,000 in a private transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of that act resulting in gross proceeds to us of $48,000. At the time of our investment, Mr. Mark Lucky, our Chief Financial Officer, was a member of VOIS’ board of directors, having been elected in October 2009.  In exchange for this strategic interest, VOIS received non-exclusive access to distribute IceMAIL, IcePORTAL and IceSECURE to their existing and prospective new user base, and our cloud storage network.  Mr. Lucky resigned his positions with VOIS in September 2010.  As of the date hereof, VOIS has not integrated this access within its business and we have had no subsequent business relationship with it, other than as set forth herein.

Prior to our investment in VOIS, both Messrs. John R. Signorello and Robert Druzak had personal relationships with the founders of VOIS.  In an unrelated transaction in November 2009 Mr. Signorello, a member of our board of directors and our CEO, purchased 225,000,000 shares of VOIS’ common stock from a former officer and director of VOIS for nominal consideration in a private transaction.  The shares of common stock purchased by Mr. Signorello represented approximately 27% of VOIS’ outstanding common stock purchase of the shares by us.  Thereafter, in an unrelated transaction in January 2010 Mr. Druzak purchased 225,000,000 shares of VOIS’ common stock from a former officer and director of VOIS for nominal consideration in a private transaction.  The shares of common stock purchased by Mr. Druzak represented approximately 22% of VOIS’ outstanding common stock.  Immediately following the closing of this transaction Mr. Druzak was appointed to VOIS’ board of directors and named President and Chief Executive Officer of VOIS.  Mr. Druzak, the brother of Joseph Druzak, a member of our board, was formerly a vice president of our company from March 2005 to January, 2010, but was not considered an executive officer of our company.  Mr. Robert Druzak resigned his positions with VOIS in March 2010.

While five out of the 6 board members qualify as unrelated and independent, as they are independent from management and free from any interest, function, business or other relationship that could, or could reasonably be perceived to, materially interfere with the Director’s ability to act in the our best interest, we do not have any policies or procedures for the review, approval or ratification of any related party transactions and no review or ratification of any of the foregoing related party truncations by our board has occurred.

NOTE 6 - NOTES PAYABLE

Sand Hill Finance, LLC

On December 19, 2005, we entered into a Financing Agreement with Sand Hill Finance, LLC pursuant to which, together with related amendments, we may borrow up to 80% on our accounts receivable balances up to a maximum of $1,800,000.  In conjunction with the acquisition of Inline Corporation in December, 2007, the lending limit on the credit facility was increased to $2,750,000.

NOTE 6 - NOTES PAYABLE (continued)

In addition, in November, 2008 we and Sand Hill Finance, LLC entered into a 36 month term convertible debenture agreement in the amount of $1,000,000. On September 7, 2010, Sand Hill Finance, LLC converted the remaining balance of $1,090,136 of this convertible debenture in exchange for three million shares of our common stock.  The debenture was converted at a price of $0.36338 per share.  The conversion price was subject to a floor of $0.30 per share resulting in a gain on conversion of $190,136.

Amounts borrowed under the Financing Agreement are secured by a first security interest in substantially all of our assets.  At September 30, 2010, the principal amount due under the Financing Agreement amounted to $1,649,140.  This amount is included in the note payable balance of $1,649,140 on the balance sheet at September 30, 2010.
 
Interest is payable under the Financing Agreement at a rate of 1.75% per month on the average loan balance outstanding during the year, equal to an annual interest of approximately 21% per year. We also agreed to pay an upfront commitment fee of 1% of the credit line upon signing the Financing Agreement, half of which was due and paid upon signing (amounting to $9,000) and half of which is due on the first anniversary of the Financing Agreement. In addition, we are obligated to pay a commitment fee of 1% of the credit limit annually, such amounts are payable on the anniversary of the agreement.

In connection with the Financing Agreement, we issued Sand Hill Finance, LLC, a seven-year common stock purchase warrant to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The warrant contains a cashless exercise provision which means that at the option of the holder, the warrant is convertible into a number of shares of our common stock as determined by dividing the aggregate fair market value of our common stock minus the aggregate exercise price of the warrant by the fair market value of one share of common stock. The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant and the exercise price are subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and reclassifications. The fair value of the warrant of $16,250 has been recorded as an addition to paid-in capital and interest expense during the year ended September 30, 2007.

In connection with the term loan, we issued Sand Hill Finance, LLC a seven-year common stock purchase warrant to purchase 120,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise prices $1.00 per share.  The warrant contains a cashless exercise provision which means that at the option of the holder, the warrant is convertible into a number of shares of our common stock as determined by dividing the aggregate fair market value of our common stock minus the aggregate exercise price of the warrant by the fair market value of one share of common stock. The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant and the exercise price are subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and reclassifications. The fair value of the warrant of $13,587 has been recorded as an addition to paid-in capital and deferred finance costs during the year ended September 30, 2009.

The Financing Agreement has a term of one year, subject to mutual extension by both parties. As a result, the balance due to Sand Hill Finance, LLC is classified as a current liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

The terms of the Financing Agreement also restricts us from undertaking certain transactions without the written consent of the creditor including (i) permit or suffer a change in control involving 20% of its securities, (ii) acquire assets, except in the ordinary course of business, involving payment of $100,000 or more, (iii) sell, lease, or transfer any of its property except for sales of inventory and equipment in the ordinary course of business, (iv) transfer, sell or license any intellectual property, (v) declare or pay a dividend on stock, except payable in the form of stock dividends (vi) incur any indebtedness other than trade credit in the ordinary course of business and (vii) permit any lien or security interest to attach to any collateral.  Sand Hill Finance provided a waiver with respect to our disposition of IceWEB, Virginia, Inc. in March, 2010, as discussed herein.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

We account for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740-10-25.  ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all the relevant information.  A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met.  Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.  ASC 740-10-25 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of unrecognized tax benefits, interest, and penalties. ASC 740-10-25 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carryforwards. ASC 740-10-25 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.  At September 30, 2010 and 2009 the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits, interest, or penalties.

As of September 30, 2010 we had unused net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $14,200,000 available to reduce our future federal taxable income. Net operating loss carryforwards expire through fiscal years ending 2030. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by carryforwards after a change in control (generally a greater than 50% change in ownership).

The valuation allowance at September 30, 2010 was $6,327,000. The decrease during fiscal 2010 was approximately $359,000.

Net operating loss carryforwards and the associated deferred tax asset were reduced during fiscal September 30, 2009 to reflect the impact of the disposition of IceWEB Virginia, Inc. in a stock sale transaction in the second quarter.

The table below summarizes the differences between our effective tax rate and the statutory federal rate as follows for fiscal 2010 and 2009. The effective tax rate is 34% Federal and 3.6% State after Federal tax benefit:

Bank Balances

We maintain our cash bank deposits at various financial institutions which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).  During October 2009, the FDIC increased the insured amounts at participating financial institutions from $100,000 to $250,000 and provided unlimited coverage for non-interest bearing transaction accounts.  At September 30, 2010 we had no amounts in excess of FDIC insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Major Customers

Sales to eight customers represented approximately 89% of total sales for the year ended September 30, 2010. As of September 30, 2010 approximately 83% of our accounts receivable was due from one customer. Sales to ten customers represented approximately 63% in 2009.

Preferred Stock

Our authorized capital includes 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 1,666,667 shares have previously been designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Our Board of Directors, without further stockholder approval, may issue our preferred stock in one or more series from time to time and fix or alter the designations, relative rights, priorities, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the shares of each series. In September 2005, Our Board of Directors authorized a series of 833,334 shares of blank check preferred stock be designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and on September 28, 2005, we filed a Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Preferred with the Secretary of State of Delaware. On December 29, 2005, we filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock increasing the number of shares authorized under this series to 1,833,334 shares.

A) Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On March 30, 2005, we entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and related agreements with Barron Partners LP. Under the terms of this agreement, we sold Barron Partners LP, an accredited investor, 1,666,667 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and issued the purchaser the Common Stock Purchase Warrants “A”, “B” and “C” to purchase an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.00 to $9.60 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000. We received net proceeds of $900,000 after payment of expenses of $35,000 and a finder’s fee to Liberty Company LLC of $65,000. We also issued Liberty Company LLC, a broker-dealer, a Common Stock Purchase Warrant “A” exercisable into 175,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $0.70 per share as additional compensation for its services. We used these proceeds for general working capital and acquisitions.

NOTE 11 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT) (continued)

so long as the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is outstanding, we have agreed not to issue any rights, options or warrants to holders of its common stock entitling the holders to purchase shares of its common stock at less than the conversion ratio without the consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. If we should elect to undertake such an issuance and the Series B holders consent, the conversion ratio would be reduced. Further, if we should make a distribution of any evidence of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for any security to our common stockholders, the conversion value would be readjusted,

the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock automatically convert into shares of our common stock in the event of change of control of the Company, and

so long as the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are outstanding, we cannot sell or issue any common stock, rights to subscribe for shares of common stock or securities which are convertible or exercisable into shares of common stock at an effective purchase price of less than the then conversion value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

Warrants Issued In the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock Transaction

In connection with the sale of shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, we issued the purchaser the following common stock purchase warrants:

Common Stock Purchase Warrants “D” to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share,

Common Stock Purchase Warrants “E” to purchase an aggregate of 625,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.80 per share, and

Common Stock Purchase Warrants “F” to purchase an aggregate of 625,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $9.60 per share.

We also issued Liberty Company LLC, a broker dealer which served as finder for us in the transaction, a Common Stock Purchase Warrant “G” to purchase 25,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. Other than the exercise price, all other terms of the warrant issued to Liberty Company LLC are identical to the Common Stock Purchase Warrants “E” and “F” issued to the purchaser.

The expiration date of the warrants is five years, or 18 months after effectiveness of a registration statement subsequent to the issuance hereof with such 18 months to be extended by one month for each month or portion of a month during which such registration statement’s effectiveness has lapsed or been suspended, whichever is longer. The warrants contain a cashless exercise provision which permits the holder, rather than paying the exercise price in cash, to surrender a number of warrants equal to the exercise price of the warrants being exercised. The holder cannot utilize the cashless exercise feature during the first six months of the term or so long as there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock underlying the warrants. The exercise price of the warrants and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock dividends and reorganizations, as well as if we issue common stock or securities convertible into common stock at an effective price less than the then current exercise price of the warrant.

The warrants issued in conjunction with the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock transaction were fully converted into shares of our common stock in fiscal 2009.  There are no outstanding warrants related to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock transaction.

NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLAN

In August 2000, the Board of Directors adopted the 2000 Management and Director Equity Incentive and Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) for directors, officers and employees that provides for non-qualified and incentive stock options to be issued enabling holders thereof to purchase common shares of our stock at exercise prices determined by our Board of Directors. The Plan was approved by our stockholders in August 2001.

NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLAN (continued)

The purpose of the Plan is to advance our interests and those of its stockholders by providing a means of attracting and retaining key employees, directors and consultants. In order to serve this purpose, we believe the Plan encourages and enables key employees, directors and consultants to participate in its future prosperity and growth by providing them with incentives and compensation based on its performance, development and financial success. Participants in the Plan may include our officers, directors, other key employees and consultants who have responsibilities affecting our management, development or financial success.

Awards may be made under the Plan in the form of Plan options, shares of our common stock subject to a vesting schedule based upon certain performance objectives (“Performance Shares”) and shares subject to a vesting schedule based on the recipient’s continued employment (“restricted shares”). Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or options that do not so qualify. Any incentive stock option granted under the Plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such grant, but the exercise price of any incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our common stock must be at least 110% of such fair market value as determined on the date of the grant. Only persons who are officers or other key employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options and performance share grants. Any non-qualified stock option granted under the Plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 50% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of such grant.
 
As amended in fiscal 2010, the Plan permits the grant of options and shares for up to 60,000,000 shares of our common stock. The Plan terminates 10 years from the date of the Plan’s adoption by our stockholders.

The term of each Plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the Board of Directors, provided that no Plan option may be exercisable more than three years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The exercise price of the stock options may be paid in either cash, or delivery of unrestricted shares of common stock having a fair market value on the date of delivery equal to the exercise price, or surrender of shares of common stock subject to the stock option which has a fair market value equal to the total exercise price at the time of exercise, or a combination of the foregoing methods.

The fair value of stock options granted was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model. We used the following assumptions for determining the fair value of options granted under the Black-Scholes option pricing model:
 
   
Year Ended September 30,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Expected volatility
 
129% - 325%
   
149% - 183%
 
Expected term
 
1 - 5 Years
   
1 - 5 Years
 
Risk-free interest rate
 
0.03% - 0.48%
   
2.53% - 4.76%
 
Forfeiture Rate
 
0% - 45%
   
0% - 45%
 
Expected dividend yield
 
0%
   
0%
 

The expected volatility was determined with reference to the historical volatility of our stock. We use historical data to estimate option exercise, employee termination, and forfeiture rate within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury rate in effect at the time of grant.

For the year ended September 30, 2010, total stock-based compensation charged to operations for option-based arrangements amounted to $1,627,920. At September 30, 2010, there was approximately $447,076 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested option-based compensation arrangements under the Plan.

(a) Summary of Investments

Marketable Equity Securities:
 
In November, 2009 we acquired 800,000 shares of VOIS Inc. common stock for $48,000.  The Company was able to negotiate a purchase price less than the then trading price of VOIS’ common stock based upon the illiquid nature of the investment and the lack of any other willing purchasers for VOIS securities.  Due to the illiquid nature of the VOIS Inc. common stock we applied a discount factor of 20% to the fair value of the marketable security.
 
As of September 30, 2010,  the Company’s investments in marketable equity securities are based on the September 30, 2010  stock price as reflected on the OTCBB stock exchange , reduced by a discount factor if those shares have selling restrictions.  These marketable equity securities are summarized as follows:

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. The Company did not adopt the ASC 820 fair value framework for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements at least annually. ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

NOTE 14 - INVESTMENTS (continued)

We categorize the securities as investments in marketable securities available for sale.  These securities are quoted either on an exchange or inter-dealer quotation (pink sheet) system. The securities are restricted and cannot be readily resold by us absent a registration of those securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or the availabilities of an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.  As these securities are often restricted, we are unable to liquidate them until the restriction is removed.  Unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities available for sale are recognized as an element of comprehensive income based on changes in the fair value of the security.  Once liquidated, realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities available for sale are reflected in our net income for the period in which the security was liquidated.

Under the guidance of ASC 320, “Investments”, we periodically evaluate other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) of securities to determine whether a decline in their value is other than temporary.  Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term “other-than-temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent.  It indicates that the prospects for a near term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support fair values equal to, or greater than, the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding impairment charge to earnings is recognized.  In the assessment of OTTI for various securities at September 30, 2010 the guidance in ASC 320, “the Investment-Debt and Equity Securities,” is carefully followed.  
 
There were no impairment charges on investments in publicly traded equity securities for the year ended September 30, 2010 or for the year ended September 30, 2009.

The Company has evaluated its publicly traded equity securities as of September 30, 2010, and has determined that there were no unrealized losses that indicate an other-than-temporary impairment. This determination was based on several factors, which include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis and the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the publicly traded equity securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.
 
NOTE 15 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive income or loss refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.

Our other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains on marketable securities available for sale of $476,800.

NOTE 16 - SEGMENT REPORTING

Although the Company has a number of operating divisions, separate segment data has not been presented as they meet the criteria for aggregation as permitted by ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”).

Our chief operating decision-maker is considered to be our Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The financial information reviewed by the CEO is identical to the information presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Therefore, the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment, specifically, web communications services. For the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 all material assets and revenues of the Company were in the United States.

ITEM 14.     INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         Our Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL").

         Section 145 of the DGCL permits a corporation, under specified circumstances, to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by third parties by reason of the fact that they were or are directors, officers, employees or agents of the corporation, if such directors, officers, employees or agents acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe their conduct was unlawful. In a derivative action, i.e., one by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred by directors, officers, employees or agents in connection with the defense or settlement of any action or suit, and only with respect to a matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made if such person shall have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that the defendant directors, officers, employees or agents are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such adjudication of liability.

         Our Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision which eliminates, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, director liability for monetary damages for breaches of the fiduciary duty of care or any other duty as a director.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling our company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
a.          The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

1.          To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

i.           To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 
II-7

 

ii.          To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

iii.         To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

2.          That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.          To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

4.          That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

ii.          If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Sterling, Virginia on the 26th day of January, 2011.
